Energy Day

This report discusses the growing role of electric generation within the natural gas market, highlighting significant trends in consumption from 2003 to projected values in 2010. It emphasizes the need for a standardized Energy Day to synchronize gas and electric schedules, improving communication and operational efficiency across industries. By starting the Energy Day during off-peak hours, better coordination can be achieved, allowing for more precise alignment of fuel deliveries with generation needs, ultimately serving both primary and secondary markets effectively.

  1. Energy Day Richard J. Kruse December 1, 2004

  2. Energy Day • Electric Generation is a large and growing part of the natural gas market. • In 2003 • Total natural gas demand = 21,497 BCF • Power generation usage = 4,106 BCF or 19.1% of total natural gas consumption • By 2010 • Total natural gas demand = 24,698 BCF • Power generation usage = 6,530 BCF or 26.4% of total natural gas consumption

  3. Energy Day • Electric Generators have conflicting scheduling requirements. • Over a 24 hour period, gas fired generators must schedule gas for electric generation prior to being scheduled on the electric side, to generate electricity. • The energy day should start in a non-peak period. • The gas day starts in the middle of the morning peak on the East Coast and the Midwest.

  4. Energy Day • Standard Energy Day will put both gas and electric systems on the same time line. • Currently the electric industry has multiple electric days across the country. • The gas industry has had a standardized gas day since the adoption of GISB Version 1.0 in June of 1996. • Simplifies communications at interconnections the gas grid. • Limits imbalances, serves both the primary and the secondary markets.

  6. Gas Day – 4 Days Gas Day 1 Gas Day 2 Gas Day 3 Gas Day 4

  7. Electric Day – 2 Days Electric Day One Electric Day Two

  8. Energy Day - Conclusion • Develop a standardized Energy Day • Begin the Energy Day at an off-peak period – 12 midnight to 12 midnight based on Central Standard Time • Benefits: • Enhances communication between the gas and electric industries • Fosters the coordination of scheduling • Allows both industries to more closely match fuel deliveries to generation requirements
