The self-governing PJM stakeholders put this in place after so many supposedly “firm” generators failed to perform in 2014. PJM stakeholders voted on this policy to penalize energy suppliers who merely claim to be reliable and to use that money to reward the suppliers that actually exceed their expected performance.

This system worked so well in the past that gas plants totally dominated new power plant investment from 1990 through 2014. In much of the country, electric power plant choices are now made via competitive markets.

Now imagine if all buildings in the world did the same… Another study I blogged about in 2014 noted that retrofitting buildings brings a 387% return on investment and that for each million dollar invested over 17 new jobs were created…. Wind power costs could drop another 50%. — .

And much of the current supply crunch can be explained by the substantial drop in exploration and production after the oil price crash in 2014 and another big drop during the pandemic — cycles of disinvestment that are now being rapidly corrected in a new expansionary phase of oilfield development.

electricity generation over the past 10 years has been the rapid expansion of renewable energy resources, especially solar and wind. The amount of solar power generating capacity operated by the U.S. electric power sector at the end of 2021 is 20 times more than it was at the end of 2011, and U.S. Read more here.]

Back in 2014 I had written two articles on how doing so could make a lot of economic sense despite what one would think. The result, seen from utilities, looks like a duck: Among the many possible solutions to this is starting installing solar PV panels towards the Southwest and even, due West. But that is another story altogether.

But as far as the Inner Mongolian government is concerned, its coal power , coal-chemical, steel and aluminium plants have been built in response to national policies. It has huge potential for renewables, with vast areas of sparsely populated land and plenty of wind and sun.

Russia considers itself to be in a much stronger position today than in 2014 when the US imposed sanctions over its involvement in Crimea. After briefly talking about a so-called Asia-pivot in 2014-15, the strategy now is one of diversification in relations, both trade and political. It isn’t considered a first-tier priority.
