Abstract
The authors investigate uncertainties that could affect the usage of natural gas for electricity generation in the United States, including the pace of installing renewable generation resources, natural gas prices, and retirement of nuclear plants. The long-term modeling suggests natural gas usage for power generation in year 2030 could range from 8.7 to 15.1 trillion cubic feet, with the price of natural gas appearing to be the most important factor.
