The focus on gas is partly driven by the need for secure energy deals extending over 15 years. This shift is happening despite ongoing efforts towards decarbonization.

  • 01Europe's energy strategy for 2026 is moving back toward gas and nuclear due to policy delays and summer price spikes.
  • 02Long-term gas supply deals lasting 15 years are being favored for energy security.
  • 03Tight system margins are causing a reassessment of energy source reliability in Europe.

Utility-scale solar and batteries made up most new U.S. power plant builds in early 2026, and that shifts how operators should buy capacity

Utility-scale solar and batteries made up most new U.S. power plant builds in early 2026, and that shifts how operators should buy capacity

In early 2026, utility-scale solar and battery installations dominated new power plant builds in the U.S., according to EIA's reports. This development suggests that power operators need to rethink their capacity procurement strategies, focusing more on deliverability than merely increasing megawatts.

  • 01Utility-scale solar and battery projects dominated new U.S. power plant constructions in early 2026.
  • 02Power operators are now focusing on deliverability rather than just increasing megawatts.
  • 03The shift to renewable sources requires new strategies in capacity procurement.

Extreme-heat grid performance is separating solar-and-storage regions from capacity-constrained markets as data center load accelerates

Extreme-heat grid performance is separating solar-and-storage regions from capacity-constrained markets as data center load accelerates

Extreme heat is impacting grid performance differently across regions, highlighting disparities between solar-and-storage areas and those with capacity constraints. As data center demand increases, regions like PJM, SPP, and ERCOT face challenges in managing heat-driven peaks and maintaining price stability. The increase in solar-plus-battery penetration is prompting urgent procurement discussions.

  • 01Regions with solar-and-storage infrastructure handle extreme heat better than capacity-constrained markets.
  • 02Data center demand amplifies grid performance challenges in regions like PJM, SPP, and ERCOT.
  • 03Solar-plus-battery penetration is a driving factor in current procurement strategies.
