Webinar: Will New Gas-Fired Power Plants Solve the M-U Gas Glut?

MDN is excited to partner with NGI to present a VERY important webinar on Thursday, May 4th: "Super Power: Will New Gas-Fired Plants Solve the Appalachian Gas Glut?" NGI has assembled an all-star cast of speakers to discuss where natural gas-fired plants fit into the "generation stack," with specific emphasis on the PJM Interconnection markets in the Marcellus/Utica. PJM is a regional transmission organization (RTO) coordinating the movement of wholesale electricity in all or parts of 13 states and the District of Columbia (including PA, OH and WV). PJM, like other RTOs, faces challenges with ensuring there will always be enough electricity produced to meet demand. Over the past several years coal-fired electric generating plants have been closing. Natural gas, and in a much smaller sense renewables (wind and solar) have taken up the slack. Wind and solar are notoriously unreliable. The wind doesn’t always blow and the sun doesn’t always shine. But natural gas needs pipelines to get it to the plants. So what's the scoop with natgas electric generation in our neck of the woods? How important are new power plants to the capacity-constrained Marcellus/Utica?
