Gas in Europe tops €100/MWh for the first time since 2022 as EU warns of a new energy crisis
Europe's benchmark natural gas contract, the Dutch TTF, rose above 100 euros per megawatt hour on Wednesday, a level not seen since December 2022, with a gain of more than 4% on the day. The spike came hours after EU Energy Commissioner Dan Jørgensen warned of "another energy crisis" and a difficult winter. EU gas storage stood at 75% on October 21, below the bloc's target of 90% before November 1.
