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.

60-Megawatt wind Farm Approved for Nebraska
LCG, May 17, 2004--A planned wind farm that would include 41 turbines has received a vote of support from the Nebraska Public Power District, which will now seek approval by the Nebraska Power Review Board.The NPPD and Omaha Public Power District would each be investors in the wind farm, with the latter set to receive 10 megawatts of output. The share to be secured by NPPD would be 32 megawatts. Additional output would be assigned to Florida-based Jacksonville Electric Authority, Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska, and the City of Grand Island.Although the current size of the project is 60 megawatts, the total capacity could be expanded to 75 megawatts, provided more utilities agree to invest in the project. Financing for the wind farm will be provided by tax-exempt bonds.
