Coal Production in the United States - An Historical Overview

Oct 6, 2006
Energy from coal has been important historically in the United States for a broad range of uses. Coal today is used principally as a fuel for electricity generation and other industrial processes. Coal mining practices and technologies have become more productive through geographic changes in mining areas and increases in mine size to produce coal at competitive prices. Coal prices respond to occasional surges in demand and to regulatory requirements but, over the long term, have trended lower in real dollars.

The Relationship Between Crude Oil and Natural Gas Prices

Oct 2, 2006
This report examines the time series econometric relationship between the Henry Hub natural gas price and the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil price. Typically, this relationship has been approached using simple correlations and deterministic trends. When data have unit roots as in this case, such analysis is faulty and subject to spurious results. A cointegrating relationship relating Henry Hub prices to the WTI and trend capturing the relative demand and supply effects over the 1989-through-2005 period is found. The dynamics of the relationship suggest a 1-month temporary shock to the WTI of 20 percent has a 5-percent contemporaneous impact on natural gas prices, but is dissipated to 2 percent in 2 months. A permanent shock of 20 percent in the WTI leads to a 16 percent increase in the Henry Hub price 1 year out all else equal.

Withdrawals from Working Natural Gas Stocks During Summer 2006

Sep 29, 2006
This report examines the net withdrawals of 7 and 12 billion cubic feet (Bcf) during the weeks ending July 21, 2006, and August 4, 2006 reported in the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report. These summer-time withdrawals are notable because they marked the first two times that working natural gas stocks experienced a weekly net decline during the months of May through September in the 12-year history of the weekly stocks data. The report finds that a combination of electricity and fuel market developments accounts for the atypical working natural gas inventory behavior, including above-normal levels of working gas stocks, increased gas-fired electric generation, extremely hot temperatures in the Lower-48 States, and backwardation in the near-month natural gas futures contract.

Largest wind farm in the United States slated to begin commercial operations ›

The SunZia Wind Project, the largest wind farm in the United States, is slated to begin commercial operations this month. The wind farm, located in New Mexico, has a total net summer generating capacity of 3,650 megawatts (MW) and is composed of 916 wind turbines. SunZia’s capacity is more than three times larger than the next two largest wind farms, Alta Wind in southern California (1,098 MW) and Great Prairie in northern Texas (1,027 MW). The SunZia Wind Project works with a high voltage transmission line to deliver the wind power generated to Arizona and California. More
