Just what they need: the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe will soon operate seven electric vehicles and install charging stations on the reservation thans to a $7 million federal grand -- that works out to about ... well, you can do the math. Editors at Bismarck Tribune appear to be applauding. Link here. A reader suggests: "several" means three vehicles, four at most:

  • one for the Standing Rock chief;
  • one for the Mobridge casino / CEO
  • one for the Standing Rock casino / CEO
  • one either as back-up for parts; or, for chief, law enforcement

RBN Energy: midstream constraints loom for northeast gas production, part 3

It’s no secret to anybody paying attention to U.S. natural gas markets that Appalachia has long been bedeviled by midstream constraints, often leading to deep gas price discounts. There have been brief respites when new capacity has come online, allowing more gas to flow out, but if you've been reading our blogs and natural gas reports lately, you know we've been sounding the alarm about the growing specter of constraints reemerging. Across the country, the boom in pipeline reversals, greenfield projects, and pipeline expansions that characterized much of the 2010s is pretty much over, with just a couple of approved expansions left, and it’s gotten much harder for projects offering additional capacity to gain traction, especially in the Northeast. In today’s RBN blog, we consider the big questions facing the region: how fast will Appalachian gas production grow, how much running room do producers have left, and what are the implications of midstream constraints for forecast supply growth?
