China's apparent natural gas consumption fell 2.7% year over year in the first eight months of 2026, reflecting softer demand amid slower economic growth. This has weighed on gas sales volumes for China's gas utilities.
Biomass energy development and energy storage for industrial and commercial users could emerge as new growth drivers for CGH, supporting stronger earnings growth.
The Shiyan gas accident has negatively affected CGH’s city gas operation and the firm will grow more slowly than peers.
