Russian natural gas exports to
Germany
declined
nearly 16% in 2009 due mostly to supply disruptions related to the dispute
between
Russia
and
Ukraine
early
in the year, German energy lobby group BDEW said Friday.
Gas imports from
Russia
fell
to 32% of overall German consumption in 2009, down 15.6% from 37% a year
earlier, the BDEW said in a written statement.
The decline in gas deliveries from
Russia
was
compensated by increased supply from
Norway
, the
Netherlands
,
Denmark
and
the
U.K.
, it
said.
Imports of Norwegian gas increased to 29% of total consumption from 26% a year
earlier. The
Netherlands
delivered around 20% of German gas consumption in 2009, up around 1 percentage
point from 2008, the BDEW said.
Gas from the
U.K.
and
Denmark
accounted for around 6% of German gas imports, compared with 4% a year before.
German gas production declined by around 1 percentage point in 2009 to 13% of
consumption, the BDEW said.
