India's Gas Consumption Doubles, Pipeline Network Expands to 24,000 km

India?s gas consumption has surged to 189 million standard cubic meters per day (MMSCM), marking a significant doubling in usage. This growth is accompanied by an expansion of the country?s pipeline network to 24,000 kilometers, highlighting a major advancement in energy infrastructure.

Key Highlights:

Increased Gas Consumption: The rise to 189 MMSCM reflects growing demand for natural gas across various sectors, including power generation, industrial processes, and residential use.

Pipeline Network Expansion: The expansion of the pipeline network to 24,000 km facilitates the efficient transportation of natural gas, enhancing supply reliability and supporting increased consumption.

Infrastructure Development: The extended pipeline network is crucial for improving connectivity between gas-producing regions and consumption centers, reducing transportation costs and supporting economic growth.

Energy Transition: The increase in gas consumption aligns with India?s energy transition goals, aiming to reduce reliance on more polluting fossil fuels and promote cleaner energy sources.

Future Outlook: Continued expansion of gas infrastructure and rising consumption are expected to drive further investments in the energy sector and support India?s objectives for sustainable development.

The doubling of gas consumption and the significant expansion of the pipeline network underscore India?s commitment to enhancing its energy infrastructure and supporting a cleaner energy future.
