Structurally cheaper LNG should displace coal from Japan, and broader Asia
Asia has always regarded LNG as peak power and coal as baseload power. In spite of all the madness about Climate Change plus Fukushima plus te market ups and downs, this has not even changed in Japan. It builds new coal power too. The oversupply situation won’t go away magically. LNG will have to do what it has never done. Market LNG – develop some new markets. Markets that can grow quickly. And whee the competing fuel is way more expensive than coal to power. Trucking would be one idea.
