LCG, March 18, 2026--The EIA released a new "In-depth Analysis" of the potential impact of faster-than-expected near-term growth in data center power demand on power generation and wholesale prices on March 12. The analysis models the lower 48 states through 2027 and compares results to its base case scenario. Key takeaway from this sensitivity analysis is the potential increase in fossil fuels in some regions and potentially a significant increase in wholesale prices in ERCOT.

California Approves Enron 750 Megawatt Plant
LCG, Dec. 21, 2000--Enron North America said yesterday that it has received unanimous approval from the California Energy Commission for its 750 megawatt Pastoria Energy Facility, which is located in Kern County, southwest of Bakersfield. The project was announced in late 1998."This decision represents our second permit of an efficient, clean-burning power plant that will helpCalifornia overcome the tremendous energy shortfall the state has experienced this year," said DavidParquet, vice president, Enron North America.The company recently sold its first project in California, the 508 megawatt Pittsburg District EnergyFacility, to Calpine Corp., which renamed it Los Medanos Energy Center, will build it and have it in commercial operation next year. Parquet said "We have more than 2,000 megawatts of additional new projects under development in California, and we're eager to move forward with these plans to provide more generating capacity to the state."So long as Californians keep burning megawatts as if they were free, the state need all the power plants it can get.
