We forecast natural gas consumption by the U.S. electric power sector this summer will remain near recent highs and set a record next summer in our May Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO). Despite a 2% increase in overall U.S. electricity demand this summer, we expect natural gas-fired electricity generation to be similar to last summer, primarily because of forecast increased generation from renewables. In the May STEO, we forecast natural gas consumed by the U.S. electric power sector will average 43.7 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) during the summer (June–September), the same as in the summer of 2025, and 4% above the five-year summer average (2021–2025). We forecast natural gas consumption for power generation will increase 6% (2.4 Bcf/d) during the summer of 2027 to 46.1 Bcf/d, surpassing the previous record set in 2024 by 3%.

Energy-Storage.news Premium speaks with Brattle Group's Andrew Levitt and Dr Long Lam, about PJM and managing load growth.

La planta, con una inversión de 595.390,10 euros, se ha ejecutado sobre la cubierta de la nave industrial de Coceda en Valencia y está compuesta por 1.735 módulos fotovoltaicos monocristalinos de 560 Wp y nueve inversores de 100 kW. La compañía instaló en 2024 dos plantas fotovoltaicas en Barcelona que suman una potencia aproximada de 2.850 kWp.

Se trata de una de las dos unidades PVbos de 500 kW cada una que contempla el proyecto. Esta primera plataforma forma parte de un sistema fotovoltaico offshore flotante de 1 MW de potencia total, concebido para operar en mar abierto mediante tecnología flotante de gran capacidad.

The Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has initiated a programme to encourage battery energy storage systems (BESS) and other inverter-based resources to adopt grid-forming technology.

LG Energy Solution’s US battery storage system integrator arm has signed a 1.5GW/6GWh deal with Michigan utility DTE Energy.

El 16 de junio publicarán las solicitudes admitidas, el 24 del mismo mes se abrirán las ofertas económicas y la adjudicación está prevista para los primeros días de julio.
