The shale gas revolution has resulted in unprecedented low natural gas prices. Increasingly, power operators have been turning off their coal fired power plants in order to switch to the abundant natural gas. The risks of brownouts and perhaps even blackouts on weekdays challenged by extreme weather loom as a growing risk that could trigger a backlash against emissions regulations, renewable sources of electricity and competitive power markets.

Join this webinar
http://bit.ly/SkAe8I as we explore if there even is enough natural gas that is findable and deliverable to plug most of the gap created by the projected closure of 25.5 gigawatts (GW) of U.S. generating capacity between now and year-end 2015? Among others, we'll also discuss:

What are the origins of this? Why are we closing over 25 Megawatts of generating capacity in just three years?
How much new natural gas can fill the gap?
Is there even enough natural gas pipeline capacity available?
