Updates

Later, 12:54 p.m. CT: wow, at ISO-NE -- natural gas -- 72%.

ISO-NY (link here) and ISO-NE (link here).

• 11:11 a.m. ET --
• New England: $35; 72% natural gas;
• New York: $30
• dual fuel, natural gas or other fossil fuel (like coal): 36%
• natural gas: 21%
• nuclear: 24%
• hydro: 16%
• wind: 0.33% -- really?  (less than oil which is about 1.3%)

In other words, crude oil is providing almost 5x the amount that wind is providing to generate electricity in ISO-NY.

I'm sure it will "pick up" this afternoon.

ISO-NY: all fuel --

ISO-NY: renewable (it's all hydro -- and hydro has been around "forever," not because of global warming but because it was available and affordable) --

Updates:

• at 10:55 a.m., wind accounted for 0.12% of total energy, down from 0.33% just one hour earlier
• percent coming from "dual fuel" (all fossil fuel) is increasing -- fossil fuel is dispatchable, wind is not -- and we're seeing this first hand
