@JavierBlas
2/6 Poland (40%) and Bulgaria (77%) have traditionally been dependent on Russian Gas (numbers are from 2020 and are estimated somewhat higher for 2021).
3/6 Both countries have planned well ahead. Poland is opening a gas link with Lithuania in May and the Baltic Pipe connecting to Norway is planed to be operational in October.
4/6 Bulgaria is connecting to Greece via the Greece-Bulgaria Gas Interconnector. Commercial operation is planed to start in September. The Tanap pipeline connecting Azerbaijian via Turkey to Greece is operational since 2018.
5/6 Furthermore Poland has planed well ahead with its gas storage as of April 26th at over 75%. Bulgaria gas storage level at just over 17%. However total Bulgarian gas imports are only 3bcm and new Gas Interconnector pipeline has capacity of 3 to 5 bcm.
6/6 This is not to say that there will be no price & economic impacts. Decrease of Russian gas supply does tighten overall supply and could put upward pressure on price. However systemic risk/no gas available to Poland & Bulgaria are vastly overstated.

1/4 Macrovoices Podcast Episode 334 with guest @Go_Rozen

From the transcript: "we just got back from ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช, the Germans are basically resigned to the fact that they are not going to have electricity this winter".

What was/is the reality?

#electricity #germany #EnergyCrisis
2/2 Actual situation up to January 24th 2023 for the month of January (peak of winter in ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช):

๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช biggest net exporter of electricity in Europe.
3/4 Same situation for December 2022. December average temperatures were -1.8C cooler than 5 year average.

1/8 Forward curves for ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ gas prices (TTF) show falling prices but levels remain double ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ benchmark (Henry Hub) until 2031.

Thus the 'Doomsday crowd' forecasts de-industrialization of ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ.

I am positioned the other way.

2/8 The first counter argument is that this is somewhat more a return to the past with TTF generally trading way above Henry Hub.

3/8 In this context I also recommend to read the Substack article from @adam_tooze from September 2022. In essence he refutes the 'cheap Russian gas hypothesis' for ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ช and focuses on the relevance of energy efficiency.

1/10 Focus on demand destruction in oil getting more coverage.
Demand destruction meets supply issues.

#Oil , #xle , #CrudeOil , #energy
2/10 I have written a number of threads since March this year about my assumption that global oil demand peaked in 2019. The reasons can be found in the threads listed below.
3/10 The rebound from COVID crisis level oil demand in 2020 & firm crude prices have been mistaken by many as a return to perpetual demand growth. Instead the rebound to 'normal' economic activity met inelastic supply taking longer to rebound further elevated by the ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ invasion.

1/13 A few thoughts on nuclear energy as the white knight of European energy security and independence against the background of Russian fossil fuel dependence.

Not really...

#Nuclear
#EU
#electricity
2/13 Let me say upfront that I am not against nuclear energy but it has to make sense. For example Germany made a mistake in shutting down nuclear energy quickly for political reasons. A better approach would have been to sweat the nuclear assets as long as reasonably possible.
3/13 Go for the shut down of the most expensive/dirty power sources first & built up alternative energy sources & storage in parallel. Less (Russian) gas used for electricity generation in that scenario as well. However it is what it is & the clock can't be turned back a decade.

1/16 Lots of noise on oil again at the moment.

Who wins the race between peak/falling oil consumption and supply constraints?
#oil
#XLE
2/16 I seek out information which does not confirm my thesis that oil consumption is peaking for good.
I listened to J Young on @JackFarley96 podcast this morning. The relevant part I disagree with is at 8:29 min "oil demand continues to grow at 1% annually".
3/16 I am not trying to pick on one particular investor. There are others.
Below is past global oil consumption data and current forecast for 2022 by eia.gov . The data includes the downward revision in March by 1 mil barrel by the EIA. Data via @GregorMacdonald

1/6 A quick update on gas storage levels in Europe (a follow up to my thread from April 10th.).

Currently Europe is on course to reach 80% storage level before October.
#gasprices
2/6 Reuters reported a few days ago that Ukraine (a major transit route of Russian gas into Europe) is stopping some gas deliveries into Europe.

reuters.com/business/energโ€ฆ
3/6 Europe has made progress in filling up its gas storages as the weather has been getting warmer and less gas is used for heating. Current EU-27 gas storage level has reached 39.48% as of May 15th compared to 26% as of April 26th. Source: agsi.gie.eu
