The cold has...Continue Reading

These colder temperatures have led to increases across the board, and, if you are on index or variable rate models, you can expect to see higher prices as a result. ERCOT electric prices have...Continue Reading
Electricity Markets February started off cold and is seeing strength in the markets as a result. ISO-NE certainly moved higher on the heels of the significant increase in the Algonquin basis. Similar strength in pricing was observed across the ISOs as the underlying NYMEX costs increased throughout the week. Near-term concerns are really driving these...Continue Reading

Electricity Markets Electric prices remain very favorable moving into December. For those in NYISO especially, capacity markets are still trading unusually low and there is good value in locking in outer years. With the capacity that was removed from the market last April, and more to come this April, we should be seeing capacity prices...Continue Reading
Electricity Markets Another pretty significant drop in the 12-month forward average for all markets, driven but a drop in natural gas and basis prices.

Electricity Markets There was a large drop in all electric markets over the report week, with the exception of ERCOT. ISO-NE especially came down quite a bit from the highs seen just 2 weeks ago. This drop is again, tied like last week to the large decrease in the gas basis prices in the Northeast.Continue Reading
