Natgas Prices in New England Spiked to Highest Ever in January

In January 2026, New England experienced record-high natural gas prices triggered by an intense cold snap. On January 27, wholesale electricity costs reached $441.8/MWh, a significant jump from the previous January's average of $135.08/MWh. The problem is not enough natural gas pipelines. But that's not what the dunderheads who run the blue states of New England believe. They think natgas is the problem and that more unreliable renewables are the solution. You can't fix stupid, but you can vote it out of office.
