RE:New 7-year highPower prices the 20th and 21st in Alberta have been quite high with the cold snap. Peyto’s realized price under the Cascade gas supply agreement is indexed to Cascade Power’s realized power price so I imagine this has been a couple of good days for them. Cascade 1 & 2 are running around 90%. Certainly doesn't hurt. The cold is to continue through the weekend so a nice little run for Peyto (sorry Alberta).
Average price on the 20th was 7 times higher than the price on the 19th. Looks like a similar story today but not quite as good as the 20th.
