It’s been a rough 2022 when it comes to energy costs.
Energy costs in all industries—including oil, propane, natural gas, and electricity—had been rising steadily due to sluggish global oil production not keeping up with the mass demand that immediately followed the emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The cost of natural gas increased by more than 150%. The price of crude oil went over $85 per barrel, the highest it had been in seven years. Propane prices were at their highest level in seven years. Electricity costs also rose, owing to the industry’s reliance on natural gas-fired power plants.
Then came the invasion of Ukraine by Russia along with the sanctions that followed, which heaped more economic misery when it came to energy costs onto consumers already exhausted after two years of living in a pandemic.
