The price of gas futures for next-month delivery increased by 9%, reaching 119.50 pence per therm—its highest level since last week, before the announcement of the temporary ceasefire between the United States and Iran.

Gas prices had previously fallen below 80 pence before tensions escalated at the end of February, then surged to around 180 pence in mid-March, reflecting sharp volatility in energy markets driven by geopolitical developments.
