According to a December 2024 Department of Energy report, Coloradans could pay as much as 31% more for their natural gas by 2050 if the federal government allows liquified natural gas exports from the U.S. to places like Asia and Europe to increase.
The report notes residential consumers nationwide could pay as much as $122.54 more per year for natural gas and electricity by 2050, and industrial sector costs could increase by $125 billion from 2020 to 2050.
