Europe's summer is coming to an end, and gas reserves are in a hurry. This may intensify the battle for global gas supply. According to reports, the region will still require more than 100 terawatt-hours of natural gas to reach the minimum storage target of 75%, and achieving this goal will require an injection rate unprecedented since the 2022 energy crisis. Europe may have to pay high prices to ensure scarce goods reach its shores, and few people think Europe will have an actual shortage because it can pay for natural gas, but it may not be immune to the economic impact of rising energy prices.
