Industry experts convened at this Law Seminars International conference in San Francisco on 3-4 November 2011 to examine the interface between the need for flexible generating resources to fill in for variability in California's energy supply, and the challenge these resources face in terms of fuel supply and economic viability. NERA Affiliated Consultant Mike King delivered a presentation entitled "Natural Gas in the Energy Mix: Is It a Bridge to Renewables?" Mr. King provided an overview of California's supply and demand outlook for natural gas. His presentation covered the Rocky Mountain reserves, Alaskan and Canadian exports, foreign demand, pricing trends, the economics of gas peaking plants to balance intermittent renewables, and the likely impact of fracking concerns.
