A barrel of oil has about six times the energy content of a thousand cubic feet of natural gas. The graph below compares the dollar price of a barrel of oil with the oil-equivalent cost of natural gas, calculated by multiplying the price (in $/1000 cu ft) by six. The two prices ten...

and volatility illustrate the uncertainty in energy costs and prices and handle local nonlinearity. Crude oil and natural gas prices decouple for two regimes of about four and five years (i.e., short-term decoupling), while they couple for four subsequent regimes (i.e., long-term coupling fo...
Biden has already committed to sending an additional 15 billion cubic meters of natural gas exports to the EU this year, a move that sent prices higher. Natural gas prices hit the highest level in thirteen years last wee...
Two carbon price scenarios were considered (high and low prices for permits). The paths considered (now called cases) were as follows: • Case 1.This is similar to path 3 (maximum coverage of the economy). Permits were not allocated at all. Emitters must buy them at the prevailing carbo...
agricultural productivity by Zhai et al. (2009) assumes that the long-term effects of climate change will last until 2080. Edoja et al. (2016) examine the impact of climate change on agricultural productivity worldwide and show that it can increase food prices and negatively impact agricultural...
LIFO Last-in, first-out Marcellus Shale A Middle Devonian-age geological shale formation that is present nearly a mile or more below the surface in the Appalachian region of the United States, including much of Pennsylvania and southern New York. Mbbl Thousand barrels (of oil) Mcf Thousand cu...
Organic solar cells (OSCs) are the efficient low cost renewable energy source during the last 10 years. However, the major issue regarding OSC is its lifetime or stability that limits their marketability. These devices are highly sensitive to oxygen and water leading to a rapid degradation when...
low natural gas prices kept these unconnected reserves in the ground. The above graph highlights the difference between natural gas wells that recorded production throughout the year versus the number of reported completed natural gas wells during these years. Because there is usually a time lag bet...
These prices are marginally above the estimated breakeven price for the low-cost Marcellus shale gas, but considerably below the breakeven prices required for the balance of the shale basins. Table 1. At Henry Hub 2011 spot gas prices only the Marcellus shale is profitable (at P50 or higher)...
