Europe is facing a deepening energy crunch as domestic natural gas production plunges to its lowest level since 2021, even as demand surges to multi-year highs. According to the latest Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) report, European gas output dropped 8% year-on-year in the first quarter of 2025, reaching just 47.7 billion cubic meters (bcm)-a stark reversal after a brief rebound in 2023 and 2024. The decline accelerated in March, with production falling 4% compared to the same month last year, marking the fifth consecutive month of shrinking output. |

As of now, specific details regarding the exact power capacity and startup date for the dam on the Yarlung Zangbo River have not been officially confirmed by Chinese authorities. However, reports suggest that the project is part of China's ambitious plans to significantly expand its hydropower capacity in Tibet, potentially generating tens of gigawatts of electricity. The Yarlung Zangbo River, with its steep gradients and high flow volume, offers substantial hydropower potential. The project is still in the planning and feasibility study stages, and its timeline for construction and operation remains unclear. Given the scale and complexity of such a project, as well as the need for environmental and geopolitical considerations, it may take several years before construction begins and the dam becomes operational. China has emphasized that the project will prioritize sustainable development and consider the interests of downstream countries. However, the lack of detailed information has fueled concerns among neighboring nations and environmental groups. Further updates are expected as the project progresses through planning and approval stages. |
