New England's natural gas prices are likely to rise this winter and could prompt more supportive policies, stakeholders told the IPPNY Fall Conference.

Europe is in a historic energy crisis, which will likely negatively impact the U.S. as shale gas exports increase, warned energy entrepreneur Thierry Lepercq.

Experts, analysts and lobbyists convened with FERC in Vermont to talk about the issues facing New England’s electric grid in the winter.

The federal government is standing ready to help New England with fuel supply and grid reliability this winter, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm said.

ISO-NE warns that the region’s near-term grid reliability depends on its access to LNG — and that access in turn relies on a single facility outside Boston.

NESCOE urged ISO-NE to share confidential data about fuel supply and grid reliability with FERC ahead of the upcoming winter.

New England governors asked Secretary Granholm to consider waiving the Jones Act for LNG imports and tapping the Northeast oil reserve for heat this winter.

The Northeast U.S. could meet its winter peak power needs with LNG rather than relying on oil or coal plants, argues a Houston-based entrepreneur.

A panel of energy experts discussed LNG in the context of significant shocks to the market’s supply and demand this year.

ISO-NE is not going to try for an out-of-market solution to New England's winter reliability woes this year.
