European gas prices approach €100/MWh as storage drawdown accelerates

European natural gas prices are rising toward €100 per MWh, driven by faster-than-expected storage withdrawals and concerns over winter supply.

This marks a significant escalation in energy costs, with implications for inflation and industrial competitiveness.
