Demand for liquefied natural gas – or LNG – continues to grow due to its potential to deliver flexible energy around the world. It has its critics, but LNG plays an important role in the energy transition by helping to displace coal and supporting renewable power generation. In this episode, hosts Bryony and Eddie hear from Shell's President of Integrated Gas, Cederic Cremers, on why global demand for LNG is expected to grow, the importance of addressing methane emissions, and Shell's LNG ambitions.
