Of the country's 6,000 coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, wind, and solar electric - generating facilities, a small sub-group of mostly coal - fired power generators produces more than its share of the nation's carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions compared with the electricity it produces, the report found.

At the end of 2010, natural gas - fired generators constituted 39 % of the Nation's total electric generation capacity of 1,042 gigawatts (GW).

DERs can include solar panels, combined heat and power plants, electricity storage, small natural gas - fuelled generators, electric vehicles and controllable loads, such as HVAC systems and electric water heaters.

During 2012, particularly in the spring and early summer, low natural gas prices led to competition between natural gas - and coal - fired electric power generators.

The decline in natural gas use for electric generation indicates that even existing gas pipelines may operate under capacity and that ANE — or other new pipeline infrastructure — will not be needed to supply either electric generators or gas heating customers.

With warmer summer weather and increased electric demand for air conditioning, demand will increase, requiring increased output from both coal - and natural gas - fired generators.
