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.

Gas-fired Plant Under Construction in Colorado
LCG, Mar. 6, 2002A joint venture of Colorado Springs Utilities and El Paso Corp., of Houston, has begun construction of a gas-fired, combined-cycle 480-megawatt power plant just south of the Ray D. Nixon power plant, near Fountain, Colorado.Steve Christensen, project manager at Colorado Springs Utilities, said the plant will lower the utilitys need for purchases from the open market, and supply half of Colorado Springs electricity needs during peak demand. The plant, named Front Range Power, is expected to be operational in spring 2003.Colorado Springs Utilities, which has $40 million invested in the plant, said it will use 80 gallons of water per minute for steam turbines, compared to hundreds or thousands of gallons used by traditional gas-fired plants.
