Following up on Sutherlin’s comments from the JOYG CC, it’s important to note that NG demand by electric utilities is non-linear with respect to the demand for electricity. The reason is that NG is used as a standby fuel by many coal-fired plants operated by electric utilities.

In other words, a hypothetical 10% increase in the production of electricity (from an improving economy) would in all likelihood lead to a more than 10% increase in the use of NG by electric utilities.
