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.

Cheniere Announces Program for LNG Cargo Nominations
LCG, September 7, 2005--Cheniere Energy, Inc. announced earlier this week the activation of Cheniere's North American LNG Gateway Program by issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) to sell to Cheniere up to 200 deliveries annually of liquefied natural gas (LNG) for the years 2008 - 2010. Cheniere's program provides global LNG suppliers a means to nominate cargoes into Cheniere's LNG receiving terminals beginning with the Sabine Pass LNG Receiving Terminal that is currently under construction in Cameron Parish, Louisiana along the Sabine-Neches Ship Channel.The planned Sabine Pass LNG Terminal will receive LNG tankers and vaporize the LNG into natural gas. The gas from the terminal will be transported via the Cheniere Sabine Pass LNG pipeline into the natural gas transmission pipeline network serving much of the Central and Eastern United States. The terminal and related pipeline are designed with a sendout capacity of 2.6 Bcf/day in the first phase, which is scheduled to commence operations in 2008. Construction on the new LNG facility began in March 2005.In July, Cheniere filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) a second phase for the project that would increase the sendout capacity of Sabine Pass LNG Terminal to 4 Bcf/day. According to Cheniere, the expansion could open between 2009 and 2010.
