Alan Greenspan, chairman of the Federal Reserve, has reiterated that the jump in natural gas prices is likely to be protracted and it is possible that prices will become a drag on the US economy as winter approaches. Higher import levels may be required to reduce natural gas prices in the US, but this solution is no quick fix.

The price may be high, but for Alinta [ALN.AX] it is worth paying Duke [DUK] A$1.69 billion to capture some of Australia's most important gas pipelines, as well as power generation assets. Capitalizing on US energy companies' steady exit from Australia, the company is both improving the diversity of its operations and creating steady long-term growth in shareholder returns.

Fixed price contracts are particularly appealing right now as a tool to guard against future price volatility and protect margins.

National Grid Transco's [NGT.L] proposed sale of UK gas distribution networks may well be affected by wrangling over the regulated asset value of these businesses. This appears simply to be horse trading before the preliminary bids are issued, and the real strategic importance of these assets lies in the potential development of horizontally integrated operations.

The UK's move to net gas importer status has raised concerns over the country's dependence on gas as the principal fuel for power generation. Given that demand for energy is increasing, the UK now has two choices: focus on developing a broad mix of generation including nuclear and renewable sources, or maintain the dependence on gas with its inherent vulnerability to increases in import costs.
