EIA: U.S. Natural Gas Use for Power Generation to Continue Increasing in Coming Years

SUGAR LAND--January 12, 2018--Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--The U.S. Energy Information Administration's (EIA) latest Short-Term Energy Outlook provides forecasts for a variety of trends to be seen this year and in 2019. Among these is that utility-scale power generation from natural gas in the U.S. will rise from a 32% share in 2017 to 33% in 2018 and 34% in 2019. The movement comes in the face of predicted lower natural gas prices and the diminishment of coal as an energy resource. Industrial Info is tracking more than $50 billion in natural gas-fired projects in the Power Industry that are set to kick off in 2018 and 2019.
