The IEA predicted further worldwide demand growth of slightly under 2%, to 4,292 Bcm (151.6 Tcf), in 2025. North America (mainly the U.S.) remained the world's leading gas consumer, using about 1,178 Bcm (41.6 Tcf) in 2024. This year, the IEA predicted North American gas consumption would reach approximately 1,183 Bcm (41.7 Tcf). The IEA report said U.S. gas use was about 946 Bcm (33.4 Tcf) last year and will dip slightly to about 944 Bcm (33.37 Tcf) in 2025.
