Natural gas (Henry Hub) FAQ: Why price changes

Short answers to common questions, with links back to today, history, and source notes.

FAQ teasers

Why does natural gas price spike in winter?

Henry Hub is priced continuously in deep US-linked markets. Moves reflect weather-driven demand, storage flows, production constraints, and macro risk tone—often several factors at once. The number here reflects the latest update on this page, not proof of one exclusive driver.

Is Henry Hub the same as EU TTF gas?

No. Henry Hub is a US benchmark commonly quoted in USD per MMBtu. European benchmarks like TTF reflect different hubs, transport constraints, and policy context, so levels and drivers are not interchangeable.

These explanations combine the latest price updates on this site with selected headlines. No single source should be treated as the sole confirmed cause.
