Russia Burning Off Natural Gas Which Would Have Gone to Germany – Report
Experts at Norway-based Rystad Energy found that a new liquified natural gas (LNG) facility northwest of St. Petersburg, near Russia's border with Finland, is burning an estimated $10 million worth of gas every day, causing waste and environmental damage as energy costs soar,
News reported.
"I've never seen an LNG plant flare so much," Dr. Jessica McCarty, an expert on satellite data from Miami University in Ohio, told BBC News. "Starting around June we saw this huge peak, and it just didn't go away. It's stayed very anomalously high."
