Coal Prices Surge As Energy Shock Forces Power Plant Fuel Switching In Exposed Countries
Asian benchmark Newcastle coal prices jumped more than 9% to $150/ton (as per BBG data) at the start of the week, as energy flows across the Gulf area remain disrupted and transit through the Strait of Hormuz has significantly slowed. The rise in coal prices is being driven by a broader energy shock, with surging gas prices making coal a more economical substitute fuel for power generators.
Last week's IRGC kamikaze drone attack, which shuttered Qatar's massive LNG export facility - responsible for roughly 20% of global supply - has been the driving force behind gas-to-coal switching, especially in Europe, as gas prices have soared 50%.
Samantha Dart (Global Co-Head of Commodities Research) penned a note late this weekend on natural gas:
"European natural gas prices (TTF) closed the week up 88% from pre-Iran-conflict levels, at 53 EUR/MWh. For context, approximately 20% of global liquefied natural g...

Solar And Storage Could Reshape Rural Electricity Markets
Authored by Leonard Hyman & William Tilles via OilPrice.com,
Rural electric cooperatives may face disruption from cheaper on-site renewables.
Co-ops serve about 12% of the U.S. population but operate over 40% of the nation's power lines.
Financial pressure could grow across the system, as co-ops remain tied to long-term fossil power contracts with generation providers while renewable alternatives become cheaper for rural customers.
Rural electric cooperatives may be next in line for meaningful disruption from lower-cost, renewable power generation technologies such as wind and solar. The co-operative movement, a creation of FDR's New Deal, has survived the past ninety six years with a simple mandate: provide low-cost, reliable electricity in under-served rural areas.
From a business perspective rural electrification always seemed like a terrible idea. The electric utility has to spend prodigiously on poles and wires for...
