The Effect of Natural Gas Prices on Power System Reliability
Purpose of Review Electricity production in United States of America is shifting from coal to natural gas. Much of this shift is driven by decreased natural gas prices, which are resulting from hydraulic fracturing. Decreased natural gas prices are causing a price reversal in the merit order between natural-gas- and coal-fired generators. Given that these fuel-price
