If Germany's natural gas inventory falls below normal levels, it could result in a loss of 40 billion euros.

Jin10 data October 9 news, according to a study commissioned by energy company Uniper SE, if this winter is abnormally cold and natural gas inventories are too low, the German economy could suffer losses of up to 40 billion euros (46.4 billion USD). The analysis found that if natural gas storage points in Northwest Europe are only filled to 75% of capacity, a severe cold snap in early 2026—where temperatures are 2.2 degrees Celsius below historical normal levels—could lead to such an extent of economic loss, similar to 2010. Currently, inventories are close to 83%, below normal levels. According to this study by Frontier Economics, keeping reserves close to 90% would reduce potential losses to around 14 billion euros, "this is the difference between stability and recession," said Uniper CEO Michael Lewis: "Without complete storage facilities, Germany is vulnerable."
