Natural gas is king. We should have natural gas running to every house in the country.

Why is more natural gas not used when it is so cheap and plentiful?

right, but its finite so it makes sense to think alternatively but wind/solar are just not it

Damn. Wind and solar evaporated.

The US has so much it doesn’t even know what to do with it.

Democrats would rather we burn off natural gas on the spot than install a pipeline to supply middle and lower class people with cheap reliable energy.
Why? Optics and because some elites in California and New York can feel good about themselves.

Those nuclear numbers are rookie numbers. You need to pump those nuclear numbers up!

I'll never understand why more aren't pushing for it.

Curious if there is a chart like this for the SSP during the same timeframe

I don't know about Texas, but in Alabama the cost to convert a power plant from coal to natural gas is fairly expensive. Coal was the dominant fuel source for so long, it's not so easy to just flip a switch to natural gas. And cheap natural gas is a relatively new thing within the last 10-15 years.

They lost something.
But you can see that the big problem was wind and solar. Followed by some natural gas plants.

What pipeline are you referring to? Not the Keystone XL, right?
