Random Note On ISO New-England -- Jluly 30, 2019

For me, this single graph speaks volumes. Link here.

Nuclear energy is pretty much steady Eddy, day-in, day-out won't change much. Same with hydroelectric power, I assume.

At the end of the end of the day (metaphorically) it's now a "natural gas energy vs renewable energy" story.

Look at this: it blows me away. Again, nuclear energy and hydroelectricity power provides a certain floor. After that, everything is in play.

Natural gas: 70:

Renewable energy: 5%.

Throw out nuclear power and hydroelectric power, the percentage of energy provided by natural gas ... is practically 100%.
