    Energy prices at the end of 2021 are up 59% from the beginning of the year, according to a new report from the U.

    Factors supporting energy index prices include weather disruptions (including freezing and Hurricane Ida in February 2021), as well as increased gasoline and diesel demand, and crude oil and natural gas demand rising faster than production


    The pandemic has reduced investment in oil and gas to near-record loads, magnifying the disparity between crude supply and demand
