Coal Retirements
• About 50 GW of coal capacity may retire by 2020 – Almost 21 GW already retired in 2010-13 (mostly older units) – Announced about 29 GW (2014-2020)

Increasing Gas Exports?
• 7 terminals received 8 permits to export LNG to non-FTA countries (as of April 2014) – Only 3 with FERC approval – Construction started on 2 liquefaction trains of the
Sabine Pass terminal in August 2012 – The first exports are not expected until 2016
• Forecasts cover a wide range from 1.6 to 3.6 tcf by 2025
• Pipe exports to Mexico have been increasing and are expected to reach 2.4 tcf by 2040 (EIA AEO) or early 2020s (based on pipe projects).

By 2020 North America Could be Energy Independent
The Energy Economies • In the US, not everywhere is like TX or ND
– Growth has been anemic and uneven • Over time and across the states • Labor force participation at historic lows • ~2 million fewer jobs than early 2008
Public discontent with and distrust of the politicalsystem – Can the US reach a path of steady growth at >3% ?
• Especially if our trade partners falter (Europe, China)
The World Economy Runs on Energy &
Runs “Best” on Cheap Energy
