Marcellus, Utica Set to Fulfill Rising Demand in New EnglandAnalysts: Syarifa Galeb & Vincent G PiazzaJun 10, 2015Robust natural-gas productionfrom the Marcellus and Utica shaleplays is poised to supply risingdemand in gas-constrained NewEngland. The increasing demandprovides growth opportunities fornatural-gas producers such asRange Resources, Cabot, EQT andAntero, pipeline companies KinderMorgan and Spectra Energy, andthe utility companies. The regionmay need as much as 1.1 billioncubic feet a day of additional supplyto meet projected demand from thepower sector in 2020, according toICF International.

Scarce Pipe Capacity Challenges Stout Gas Demand in New EnglandAnalysts: Vincent G Piazza & Syarifa GalebJun 10, 2015Low prices and environmentalconcerns in New England areboosting natural-gas demand forpower generation and conversionsfrom heating oil. Simultaneously,abundant natural gas fromAppalachia has replaced pipelineflows from Canada, the Gulf Coastand the Rockies into the Northeast.The region will be self-sufficient,while also being able to supply gasto other parts of the country. Movingthe robust natural-gas supply intoNew England has been difficult dueto limited pipeline capacity.

New England Pipelines Unable to Support Elevated Seasonal DemandAnalysts: Syarifa Galeb & Vincent G PiazzaJun 10, 2015Limited natural-gas pipelinecapacity has prohibited transportingmore supply to satisfy NewEngland's demand during winter,causing electricity and gas prices tospike. Gas demand in the region isat its highest during winter, when theneed to fuel gas-fired power plantsis coupled with heating demand. Inthe past five years, cheap supplyhas boosted the conversions togas from oil for residential spaceheating, while the replacement of oil,coal and nuclear-power plants withgas plants is ongoing.

New England Needs New Pipelines, Contracts Need for ApprovalsAnalysts: Syarifa Galeb & Vincent G PiazzaJun 10, 2015The construction of a new pipelinecan take place if pipeline companiesare able to provide evidence ofmarket need to regulators, in theform of long-term firm capacitycontracts with shippers. In NewEngland, long-term arrangementsare usually signed by local gasdistribution companies, given thatstate regulations allow the cost tobe spread to customers through gasutility rates. When heating demandis low, interruptible capacity,or capacity without guaranteeddelivery, may be available for powergenerators.

Interruptible Capacity May Not Ensure Gas Supply in New EnglandAnalysts: Syarifa Galeb & Vincent G PiazzaJun 11, 2015In a deregulated power marketsuch as New England, powergenerators supply electricity toelectric distribution companies.Generators are restricted frompassing along the cost of pipelinecapacity to customers. To securenatural gas supply, generators maypurchase interruptible capacitycontracts, a cheaper option, in whichgas delivery is not guaranteed.Some generators may buy firm-capacity contracts, which haveguaranteed delivery. Gas plantcapacity in New England has risenmore than 10 gigawatts in 14 years.

New Pipe Capacity Needed to Tame New England Gas, Power PricesAnalysts: Vincent G Piazza & Syarifa GalebJun 11, 2015Natural gas and electricity prices inNew England are tightly correlated,with as much as half of the region'selectricity generated by gas. Limitednatural-gas supply may lead to highgas and power prices. Additionally,in a very cold winter, most ofpipeline capacity would be usedby gas distribution companies thathold firm-capacity agreements,leaving little capacity for powergenerators. A lack of gas supply togenerate electricity will prompt aswitch to alternative fuels and leadto expensive power prices.

Coal and Oil May Rescue New England on Cold Winter DaysAnalysts: Vincent G Piazza & Syarifa GalebJun 11, 2015Heating oil and coal may remainalternative fuels for powergeneration during extreme coldwinter days in New England, whengas pipeline capacity is constrained.Cheaper oil and ISO New England'ssupply reliability program helpedcontain power prices in the 2014-15winter, yet this is only a temporarysolution. About 3.5 gigawatts will beretired by 2018 and 6 GW will be atrisk of retirement by 2020, accordingto ISO New England. Oil and coalplants make up 10.8 GW of capacityin the region.

Higher Power, Gas Prices to Follow New England Plant RetirementsAnalysts: Syarifa Galeb & Vincent G PiazzaJun 11, 2015Natural gas demand for powergeneration in New England willcontinue to rise due to the plannedretirement of coal, oil and nucleargenerators in the short-term. Mostof the replacement capacity will usecheaper and cleaner gas as thefuel of choice. Higher gas demandwill exacerbate New England'sscarce pipeline capacity, leadingto even more expensive gas andpower prices. About 4.6 gigawattscapacity of oil, coal and nucleargenerators will be retired in NewEngland by 2018, out of 31 GW oftotal capacity.

Access Northeast Transports Gas for New England Power GeneratorsAnalysts: Syarifa Galeb & Vincent G PiazzaJun 11, 2015Access Northeast pipeline,owned by Spectra, Eversourceand National Grid, may help tobring more gas supply to powergenerators. Contrary to the usualgas pipeline contracts, Access' firmcapacity agreements will be held byelectric utilities, and the cost to buildthe pipeline will be spread acrosselectric customers. Generators willsecure capacity from the utilitieswhen supply is needed and pay forwhat they use. These payments willoffset the rates paid by customers toutilities.
