Gas Turbine Supply Constraints Threaten Grid Reliability; More Affordable Near-Term Solutions Can Help

Risky plans to meet rising energy demand with expensive gas turbines double down on a fossil-heavy energy system and ignore faster, more abundant solutions. We can and should meet nearly all of the load growth with clean solutions that will serve customers better. After years of flat or declining electricity demand, US utilities are projecting rapid growth driven by AI, electrification, and industrial expansion. The North American Energy Reliabi…
