Gas Market Competition Heats Up

Competition in the gas market is heating up between Russia and the U.S. As Russia solidifies itself as the biggest supplier of natural gas to Europe, the U.S. is experiencing a recent resurgence of nuclear, solar, and wind energy. The result? Oil and natural gas prices are at their the lowest point in decades. Industry expert Gregory Shuttlesworth sits down with GLG to discuss the role of energy in the global economy and what to expect from non-conventional resources like nuclear, solar, and wind energy going forward.
