As many as 80 new gas-fired power plants will be built in the US by 2030, said energy consultancy Enverus, adding 46 gigawatts of capacity — the size of the electricity system in Norway and nearly 20 per cent more than was added in the past five years. The capacity surge is expected to unfold during the second presidential term of Donald Trump, who has vowed to keep fossil fuels at the centre of the US economy, and signals a reversal of earlier forecasts for natural gas capacity to fall in the next five years. “Gas is actually growing faster now, and in the medium term, than ever before,” said Corianna Mah, a research analyst at Enverus. The expansion will imperil Biden administration climate targets, which called for greenhouse gas emissions to fall by 50-52 per cent from 2005 levels by the end of the decade and the grid to be 100 per cent carbon-pollution free by 2035. “For natural gas to have a role in a decarbonised energy system, its emissions must be mitigated to the maximum extent possible,” said Armond Cohen, executive director at the Clean Air Task Force, an environmental non-profit.

None of the planned gas plants tracked by Enverus will come equipped with carbon capture systems. While the Biden administration required new facilities to include the technology starting in 2032, Trump is expected to scrap or weaken the rule. Wood Mackenzie and S&P Global Market Intelligence said US capacity growth in total could increase even more quickly, by 35 per cent and 66 per cent, respectively, over five years, compared with the buildout in the previous half decade.

The far right is a transnational movement that seeks to destroy liberal democracy by spreading disinformation on social media, smearing democratic leaders, and causing chaos.
