US natural gas consumption per a kwh goes up exponentially or asymptotically as the following increase:
- Solar Panels
- Wind Turbines
- Lithium Batteries (EV's and other)
- Work from Home
Very few people understand this.
You 100% need natural gas peaking plants for when intermittent sources of energy go down and you cannot rely on hydro etc. because they take too much time to ramp up and are limited in capacity.
Nat gas is the only thing that can cycle up quickly.
