"Sleep Tight, America. We Got This": NatGas And Coal Power Plants Prevented Grid Collapse During Historic Winter Blast
Submitted by Criterion Research President James Bevan,
Winter Storm Fern's Arctic blast from January 21-26 provided clear data on generation dispatch patterns during extreme cold weather events. The storm stressed multiple U.S. power grids, such as PJM and ERCOT and demonstrated the operational characteristics of different generation types under peak winter demand conditions.
As the cold rolled in - Criterion's pipeline data showed huge increases in deliveries to gas-fired power plants. That included dozens of active plants hitting all-time highs, along with a huge amount of peaking capacity firing online to help keep the grid stable.
We analyzed the top 20 interstate gas power meters by net change versus seven days ago to see what meter stations ramped up the most over that time.
Thirteen of the top 20 meters had zero or near-zero baselines 7 days ago, indi...

Operation Of Australia's Largest Coal Power Station Extended To 2029
Authored by Rex Widerstrom via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),
The 2,880-megawatt Eraring coal-fired power station will continue to operate until 2029, operator Origin Energy has announced.

The facility is the country's largest power station by output and is situated on the banks of Lake Macquarie, north of Sydney in New South Wales (NSW).
In an announcement to the ASX (pdf), Origin said the move would reduce risks to system security, highlighted by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) in its recent Transition Plan for System Security.
That report warned that, in NSW alternative energy assets required to “maintain system security are not currently scheduled to be operational before the announced retirement date of Eraring Power Station.”
“We've ta...
