Daily Mail: UK's natural gas reserves can last no more than two days
The newspaper cited data from the UK National Gas Company, stating that the Middle East conflict and energy crisis have led to this situation. Natural gas reserves have dropped from 18,000 gigawatt-hours a year ago to 6,700 gigawatt-hours.
The UK's natural gas storage facilities are too small to ensure supply for a long time. In addition, the UK is highly dependent on fuel imports. Due to the Middle East conflict, the UK has had to purchase natural gas at the highest wholesale prices in Europe.
Previously, Bloomberg reported that the European economy could only withstand a conflict with Iran for no more than four weeks.
