LCG, February 20, 2026--The EIA today issued an "in-brief analysis" that estimates U.S. power plant developers and operators plan to complete a record installation of 86 GW of new, utility-scale electric generating capacity that is connected to the U.S. power grid in 2026. Last year, 53 GW of new capacity was added to the grid, which was the largest capacity installation in a single year since 2002. Thus the estimate of 86 GW of new capacity in 2026 is a whopping 33 GW greater than the year prior. It should be noted that over 20 GW of the 86 GW of new capacity this year is estimated to be completed in December.

Electric Generation in Eire to Grow 20% in Year
LCG, June 12, 2001--Ireland's electricity generating capacity will grow by 20 per cent next year, the Irish Times reported this morning.Speaking before an Energy Ireland conference in Dublin, Irish Minister of Transport, Energy and Communications Mary O'Rourke said new generating plants in Ringsend and Huntstown, both in Dublin, would add more than 700 megawatts of capacity.The electric industry in Eire will be fully open to competition in 2005, and O'Rourke told the conference about major steps being undertaken to get the republic ready, including the setting up of an independent electric regulatory commission and an independent company, Eirgrid, to operate the national transmission system.John Evans, an economist with the Competition Authority, warned there was a potential problem with arrangements under which Eirgrid did not own the transmission or distribution system assets and the Electricity Supply Board is supposed to carry out all maintenance and construction work.Michael O'Connor, a partner with Matheson Ormsby Prentice, said that planning was proving to be a considerable obstacle to new entrants setting up greenfield power plant developments in Eire, the Irish Times reported. For those planning to invest in, or acquire, existing plants, there were also a limited number of potential targets, O'Connor added.
