據(jù)能源網(wǎng)8月17日紐約報(bào)道，在美國(guó)，準(zhǔn)備好穿暖和點(diǎn)。鑒于天然氣價(jià)格飆升至秋季，越來越有可能出現(xiàn)天價(jià)取暖費(fèi)。

自6月底以來，美國(guó)天然氣價(jià)格已經(jīng)上漲了70%以上，其中周二漲幅超過6%，漲回了每百萬英熱單位9美元的水平。

自2005年以來，價(jià)格從未在這個(gè)時(shí)候達(dá)到如此高的水平，那是在頁(yè)巖油開采商向市場(chǎng)注入廉價(jià)天然氣之前，以及卡特里娜颶風(fēng)和其他一系列風(fēng)暴肆虐墨西哥灣生產(chǎn)商之后。

歐洲也將迎來一個(gè)昂貴的冬天：歐洲國(guó)家正試圖儲(chǔ)備天然氣用于冬季取暖。但這很難：炎熱的天氣意味著現(xiàn)在就需要燃料來發(fā)電。

$9 Natural Gas Is Back -WSJ

Get ready to bundle up. The likelihood of sky-high heating bills is increasing by the day given the way natural-gas prices are surging into autumn.

U.S. natural-gas prices have risen by more than 70% since the end of June, including more than 6% Tuesday, to push back north of $9 per million British thermal units.

They haven’t been so high this time of year since 2005, back before shale drillers flooded the market with cheap gas and after Hurricane Katrina and a spate of other storms wreaked havoc on Gulf of Mexico producers.

An expensive winter is coming in Europe, too: European countries are trying to stockpile natural gas for winter heating. But it’s hard: A heat wave means demand for the fuel now to generate electricity.
