And those figures likely include Japan's attempt at restarting nukes which is a big push by PM Abe. However he faces big headwinds as this week 56% of the Japanese public still is highly against restarting ANY nukes. With LNG prices still pegged to oil (for the time being) energy prices are still heading up, and some plants are starting to burn coal again. I would guess that at some point by 2020 LNG prices may get pegged to a different index and bring then down a little or at least stabilize them a bit, but LNG is here to stay.
