Around the world, billions of people use liquefied petroleum gas, or LPG, to cook their meals. Today, many of those people are under substantial pressure, with global LPG supplies severely disrupted by the conflict in West Asia.
The latest episode of the IEA’s Everything Energy podcast explores this topic. It features IEA energy analysts Marina Petrelli and Arthur Rogé, who discuss the latest developments in LPG markets; and what price increases and supply shortages have meant for vulnerable communities, particularly in emerging and developing economies. They also speak about the impact of the market turbulence on expanding clean cooking access, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa.
The Everything Energy podcast offers insights and perspectives from the IEA on major global energy issues. In recent episodes, IEA experts have unpacked a number of angles related to the energy crisis stemming from the war in West Asia.
