China’s natural gas market: transitioning amid renewable goals and carbon neutrality

Nov 28, 2024

In the next episode of the Energy Connects Podcast ahead of the 24th World LNG Summit and Awards, host Nour Eltigani sits down with Xi (Lucy) Liu, General Manager of Dongguan Daosen Natural Gas and Miaoru Huang, Director of Asia Pacific Gas and LNG Research at Wood Mackenzie, to delve into the rapidly evolving natural gas market in China, a nation balancing ambitious renewable energy targets with its push for carbon neutrality.

Liu offers a closer look at Guangdong province, a trailblazer in China’s energy transformation. She highlights that the province has always been ambitious in integrating renewable sources like solar and wind. Natural gas complements these efforts, acting as a bridge fuel that fills the gaps when renewables fall short. Meanwhile, Huang explores the evolving dynamics of China’s gas markets. She elaborates on how pipeline imports are playing a pivotal role in stabilising energy supply during the nation’s renewable energy transition. She explains how pipeline imports act as a critical foundation for China’s energy infrastructure.
