How they are linked

1. Price link: energy cost

Cost and price · Moderate · Both ways

Furnaces melt sand and soda ash at high temperatures, mostly with gas, so energy is a major cost. European gas correlates with the proxy at 0.10 for monthly moves and 0.43 for yearly moves, as contracts delay pass-through.

• 0.10 monthly change correlation
• 0.43 12-month change correlation
• 0.13 fitted elasticity
