Een belangrijke reden daarvoor is de stijging van de gasprijzen als gevolg van het (stapsgewijs) schrappen van de overheidssubsidie op aardgas. Huishoudens draaien de kraan dicht om de rekening betaalbaar te houden, het op grote schaal invoeren van de inmiddels verplichte gasmeter helpt daar bij.
Overigens is ook van andre brandstoffen aanzienlijk minder verbruikt. Zo is in een jaar tijd 5,8 procent minder benzine verkocht en 0,7 procent minder dieselolie.
