Germany's costly mistake of relying on Russia for gas

Germany Could Run Out of Gas by February, Must Cut Consumption by Up to 30 Per Cent

...

 According to a report by Die Welt, Germany’s Federal Network Agency — the watchdog in charge of regulating gas and electricity in the country — has confirmed that there is a distinct possibility that Germany will run out of gas before the winter is out.

While such a shortage will be avoided if Germany can stick to cutting its gas use by at least 20 per cent, is able to get sufficient deliveries of liquified natural gas (LNG) and if exports remain relatively low, if one of these factors not sufficiently line up, the country could end up running out of gas by the end of February.

To make matters worse, some experts believe that this target of 20 per cent is far too low, with a reduction in gas usage of at least 30 per cent on the previous year needed in order to keep the economic and societal impact of shortages on Germany under control.

...

Germany and other Europ[ean countries have been too reliant on Big Green for energy and have not developed their own resources.  While they can get some LNG from the US it is not as much as they would have gotten had Biden not cut production from the level Trump was producing. Germany finds itself a victim of not only its own Big Green agenda, but also that of the Biden administration.
