Working gas stocks post largest late-season weekly net increase on record

Oct 13, 2021
Net injections into working gas stocks for the Lower 48 states totaled 118 billion cubic feet (Bcf) for the week ending October 1, according EIA’s Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report released on Thursday, October 7. This was the fifth largest net injection reported since the inception of the five-region weekly series in 2010, and the largest net injection ever reported during September or October in the history of the weekly series, dating back to 1994. This week’s net injection exceeded the five-year average by 37 Bcf. Lower 48 states’ working gas stocks are now 176 Bcf, or 5.1%, below the five-year average.

Short-Term Energy Outlook

Oct 13, 2021
We forecast that average U.S. household expenditures for all major home heating fuels will increase significantly this winter primarily because of higher expected fuel costs as well as more consumption of energy due to a colder winter. Average increases vary by fuel, region, and weather assumptions. Compared with last winter, we forecast propane expenditures will rise by 54%, heating oil by 43%, natural gas by 30%, and electricity by 6%. We expect space heating demand to generally be higher this winter based on forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) that U.S. average heating degree days will be 3% higher than last winter (Winter Fuels Outlook). Altering our assumptions for a 10% colder-than-expected winter significantly increases forecast expenditures, while a 10% warmer-than-expected winter still results in increased expenditures, because of price increases.

ERCOT increasingly meets rising demand with solar, wind, and batteries ›

Since 2021, electricity demand within the Texas electricity grid operated by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) has steadily increased. In the first nine months of 2025, electricity demand in ERCOT, which manages about 90% of the state's load, reached a record high compared with the same period in previous years. Over those same months, ERCOT had the fastest electricity demand growth among U.S. electricity grids between 2024 and 2025. From January through September 2025, demand for electric power in ERCOT increased 5% compared with the same period in 2024 to 372 terawatthours (TWh), 23% more than the same months in 2021. Since 2023, wind and solar generation, especially utility-scale solar, have been the fastest-growing sources of electricity in ERCOT and are increasingly meeting rising demand. More
