Gas prices have been rising steadily since the United States began exporting natural gas in 2016.

Since 2016, the United States has been exporting natural gas, which has led to a decline in domestic prices. This decline has driven up demand for the resource abroad, leading to a rise in global prices. The biggest increase is seen in Asia, where Japan and South Korea are attempting to wean themselves off of nuclear power. As a result of this price hike, there have been calls for the UK government to reform its energy policy.
