The potential for restarting retired power plants

Generating 6,000MW from gas-fired power plants requires at least 1,000 mmcfd of gas, even at a load factor below 50%.

The potential for restarting retired power plants

To generate approximately 6,000MW of electricity from gas-fired power plants, a supply of at least 1,000 mmcfd of gas is required, even when operating at a load factor of less than 50 percent. This requirement highlights the operational demands involved in considering the reactivation of retired power generation facilities.
