New U.S. natural gas-fired capacity additions are expected to total 8.6 GW in 2023, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).
16 natural gas-fired plants are expected to come online this year, EIA said in its Monthly Electric Generator Inventory. This includes both combined-cycle and simple-cycle plants concentrated near the Gulf Coast and Appalachia regions, as well as in Florida. Ten of these plants have already come online.
