The American Gas Association projects that the US natural gas consumption could range from 18.7 to 25.4 trillion CF in the year 2000, with a base case forecast of 22.1 TCF. The assumptions made for the high-, low-, and base-case scenarios are described. Residential gas demand is expected to be 4.3 to 5.6 TCF; commercial gas demand is set at 3.2 to 4.6 TCF; industrial gas demand is projected to be 7.9 to 10.3 TCF; gas used for electric generation will stay the same as in 1982, around 2.6 to 3.3 TCF; and the transportation sector will account for 0.7 to 1.6 TCF of natural gas.
