The International Energy Agency anticipates that the world's use of natgas could surge by more than 50 percent from 2010's levels, and eventually account for at least ¼ of global energy demand by 2035. In fact, an increasing number of idle coal plants are being retrofitted to produce natural gas.
And importantly for PPY, Alberta appears to be quickly switching most of their coal-fired power plants to natural gas. Gas is the go-to choice for the production of electricity, and the increase in the demand for power will be greater than any other.
