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.

Sale of Brazil Utility Copel Delayed
LCG, Oct. 31, 2001--The government of the state of Parana in Brazil yesterday postponed today's privatization sale of 88.64 percent of its Companhia Paranense de Energia (Copel) because none of the qualified bidders had deposited financial guarantees.The Parana state government said in a news release that a new sale date would be established as soon as legal conditions are met and a state official said that could be as soon as November 12. In its statement, Parana said the new deadline for financial guarantees would be November 6.Not everyone saw the delay as a bad thing. "There is more time now for companies to unite in consortiums," said Andre Segadilha, a Brazilian electricity sector analyst. The postponement will also give the state of Parana time to deal with two court injunctions blocking the sale.One company -- Brazilian mining giant Vale do Rio Doce -- said it would drop out of a consortium with the industrial firm Votorantim, but it was unknown whether the latter would proceed alone or try to find another partner.Belgium's Tractebel remains the leading bidder for Copel.
