The coal plants being protested - aren't those some "dirty" coal plants being rushed through approval before the various deadline which would make the utility build the more expensive "clean coal" plants ? Also, aren't most of the sites UPWIND of population centers ? I recall Kurt Wulff (not a left wing tree-hugger) printing something about this. Thanks for the great charts. This summer was super hot, so we may not see the same generation demand next summer. Looking at the charts, generation demand is up even for March and April. The industrial demand chart is shocking. Maybe 2005 was down because less NG was needed to process heavy oil (oil being shut down by the Hurricanes) ?

What your charts most importantly depict is the absolute correlation between Resource substitution and price.

Source of Data? The data at tonto.eia.doe.gov does not agree with graphs that you posted. (http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=22980154) Either I am missing something (probable) or something happened on the trip from the data posted by robry825 to the graphs. Which should I believe?
