  11. A certain Pacific Northwest #weather personality is discussing how wind generation was bad up here the past few days and that’s why wind isn’t a good solution for coming off #FossilFuels while conveniently ignoring that wind generation was pretty good in other parts of the #WECC. Not to mention solar.

    Sure, bad wind days would be bad somewhere like #ERCOT but we aren’t ERCOT. We can source power from New Mexico all the way to British Columbia.

  16. Strong wind generation, areas of strong solar, and mild temperatures producing fairly low load are driving low wholesale #energy prices throughout the #WECC today including in #CAISO. The dynamic market is even trading negative pricing in many places.

    This feels like the start of Q2, which is typically mild and so flush with energy (hydro with spring runoff) that pricing is usually quite low even with many fossil fuel generators offline for maintenance.

  21. In longer term #WECC #energy news, seasonal forecasts have the Columbia River streamflow coming in below the 10th percentile through the end of April - around 63% of average at the end of that month.

    If we don’t add significant snowpack, energy pricing in the WECC will likely be more volatile than usual during Q2 and could be more expensive than usual. Lack of reservoir storage leading into the summer could have pricing implications into Q3 as well.

  26. Natural gas prices are starting to climb in the Western US in response to modeling showing a significant cold spell beginning toward the end of next week.

    This will have a significant impact on pricing on the wholesale #energy trading market in the #WECC over the next few days whether or not the cold snap actually happens as power companies purchase more natural gas to prepare for the possible cold snap.
