Lower 48 Natural Gas-Fired Power Nears Record High of 267 GW
Natural gas-fired power generation in the Lower 48 is nearing a record high of 267 GW, according to data from Entropic Analytics' Product Suite. This represents a significant increase in output compared to previous years.
The recent surge in natural gas-fired production can be attributed to the increasing demand for electricity and the relatively low cost of natural gas as a fuel source. As a result, more power plants are turning to natural gas to meet their energy needs.
