Breakingviews - Renewables turn LNG glut into a sinkhole
Drillers from Exxon to Shell aim to boost global supply of the fossil fuel by 50% by 2030. Yet demand in key markets like China is falling. And hopes of gas replacing coal power look misplaced as solar, wind and batteries are cheaper and quicker to build. An LNG crash is looming.
