Approximately 5.1 gigawatts worth of capacity is expected by 2025 through currently planned utility-scale natural gas projects in the United States. The largest addition is expected to occur in 2022, when natural gas generators with a combined net summer capacity of over seven gigawatts will start operating.
Net summer capacity of new utility-scale natural gas generators planned to be added to the power grid in the United States between 2022 and 2026 (in megawatts)
