Energy Fuel Mix Changes Over Time

December 1, 2016

Natural gas continues to be an ever increasing commodity of choice in electricity production in the United States. Below is a chart published by the US Energy Information Agency (US EIA) that graphs the mix of fuels used to generate electricity, over time, in the US. 

According to US EIA, the continued switch to natural gas for electricity production, as a replacement for coal, will lead to increased electricity supply costs in 2017. 

Based on the US EIA's prediction, now could be a great time to lock in cheaper electricity supply costs for your commercial accounts. Even if you are under contract with a third party supplier, you often can lock in a new supply contract today, that would begin when your current contracts ends.

Call or write to Electric Advisors if you have any questions about how to extend your electricity supply contract.

As businesses continue their budgeting process throughout 2025, electricity supply costs across the PJM Interconnection region are rising, driven largely by an increase in capacity charges. Capacity charges, which ensure enough power is available during peak demand, have seen a sharp uptick, leading to higher rates, especially in the DC and Maryland energy markets. Both residential and commercial customers are facing these increases, with supply prices potentially rising by as much as 20%, significantly impacting operational costs across Montgomery County, Prince George's County, Baltimore County, Ann Arundel County and towns all across the east coast. However, there is still time to mitigate the coming increase in supply rates. From simple energy efficiency upgrades, such as LED lighting or smart thermostats, to longer-term projects like solar panel installations and power walls, businesses have a range of commercial energy solutions to reduce consumption and control costs. These procurement strategies can offer significant business energy savings over time and position companies for more sustainable energy use. We encourage you to talk with business owners and decision-makers in your network about these rising costs. This is a great time to introduce them to Electric Advisors , where we can help them navigate these changes and find ways to reduce their energy expenses. Your referrals can play a crucial role in helping those in your network become more competitive and we've made a profound impact on local businesses up and down the east coast and beyond. See below for an example of where our clients are being serviced.  Best,
