Over the past year, the news has been full of stories about the rapidly declining prices of oil and natural gas. This trend has been a boon for consumers, who are happy to be filling gas tanks and paying utility bills without breaking their budgets. But there’s a flip side to this low price environment: […]
In this webinar, we discuss the mistakes most energy procurement professionals make, why they happen, and how to fix them.
As anyone in procurement can tell you, electricity is the most volatile commodity you will ever buy. One day, energy prices increase. The next day, they drop. This constant cycle of up-and-down price changes makes energy commodities extremely difficult to purchase. What if prices drop after you’ve locked in your rate? Or, perhaps even worse, […]
Due to mild weather, slowing residential and commercial demand, and near-record level storage inventories, natural gas monthly and annual prices for 2016 were the lowest since the late 1990’s. While it is not too late to take advantage of the low-price environment for natural gas, the EIA is expecting prices to be higher in 2017. […]
New England, which regularly suffers from elevated winter natural gas prices, is receiving a sizeable bump in natural gas capacity because of updates to the Algonquin Gas Pipeline, the first capacity increase for the region since 2010.

Winter is coming! As the reliance on natural gas continues to increase, strain is being placed on existing natural gas supply and infrastructure to ensure that the lights – and heat – will be kept on during the winter. Grid operators say enhanced coordination and upgraded operational tools are key in keeping gas-fired plants online […]
The Supreme Court in MA has rejected a plan that would allow utilities to charge customers to help finance new natural gas pipelines. The good news for customers is they will not be charged additional fees; the bad news is that customers are still susceptible to huge price spikes due to not enough natural gas […]
Due to increases in power sector demand for gas, coupled with growing demand from the industrial sector in the region, overall natural gas demand in the Southeastern US is expected to grow by nearly 8 Bcf/d over the next 15 years. All these factors combine to create significant risk of higher natural gas basis prices […]
