Natural gas:
Natural gas can support an affordable, efficient, and reliable electricity system by generating electricity through gas plants, but also through integration of the existing natural gas and electric networks.
In fact, the natural gas industry is front and center in driving a wide range of innovative integrated technologies that can help alleviate the burden of infrastructure renewal. These innovations include:
- Introducing more renewable natural gas (RNG) into the power supply mix;
- More natural gas-fired combined heat and power (CHP) systems;
- Using natural gas as a partner for effective integration of renewables in the electricity grid; and
- Better integration of natural gas and electric infrastructure using power to natural gas technologies.
