Analysts expect a surge in US coal plant retirements starting in 2017, with Guggenheim forecasting 33 GW, double what has been announced. Gas storage has refilled slower than usual, and gas for March delivery is up more than 10% since last month.
Coal retirements shift power generation toward gas, adding up to about 1 Bcf/d of demand per year and supporting gas prices, which raises energy costs for feed processing.
Setelah 155 peristiwa makro bullish sebelumnya, Gas Alam bergerak median +0,1% selama 5 sesi (51% lebih tinggi; separuh tengah -4,0% sampai +7,1%), dan +2,0% selama 20 sesi.
