Even at $3/MMBtu natural gas, renewables continue to be
significantly cost competitive
1) Levelized cost of energy comparisons from January 2021 to February 2023; assumes $3/MMbtu natural gas,
which is below the current forward curve
Assumes $3/MMbtu natural gas, which is below the current forward curve
Includes fixed and variable O&M and fuel; existing natural gas assumes a 7,500 Btu/kWh heat rate; new
natural gas assumes 6,800 Btu/kWh heat rate and capital recovery
