U.S. natural gas exports to grow nearly 30% by 2027 as LNG facilities ramp up

U.S. natural gas exports to grow nearly 30% by 2027 as LNG facilities ramp up

In our latest Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), we forecast that U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports will continue to increase as five LNG export projects start operations and ramp up production by the end of 2027. We also forecast increased natural gas pipeline exports, mainly to Mexico. In our forecast, net exports of U.S. natural gas (exports minus imports) grow 18% to 18.7 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) in 2026. In 2027, net exports increase another 10% to 20.5 Bcf/d.

What's in your gasoline? Understanding U.S. motor gasoline formulations

What's in your gasoline? Understanding U.S. motor gasoline formulations

Motor gasoline in the United States is a blend of hydrocarbons and chemicals, with specific formulas varying by region and season. To meet federal air quality standards, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state regulators require different formulations, depending on air quality and location, which affect performance, cost, and emissions. In addition, warmer summer months require a different gasoline formulation than cooler winter months. Key differences between formulations include octane rating, volatility-commonly measured as Reid vapor pressure (RVP)-and emissions. This year, the EPA will relax federal enforcement of summer RVP standards to help reduce gasoline prices.

Hydropower generation expected to recover despite snow drought in the West

Hydropower generation expected to recover despite snow drought in the West

In our April Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), we expect U.S. hydropower generation will increase by 5% in 2026 but remain 1.8% below the 10-year average following snow drought conditions in some states. Hydropower generation in 2025 increased to 245 billion kilowatthours (BkWh), about 4 BkWh more than the record-low generation year 2024. In 2026, we expect generation will be 259 BkWh, which would represent 6% of U.S. electricity generation.

U.S. coal-fired generating capacity retired in 2025 was the least in 15 years

U.S. coal-fired generating capacity retired in 2025 was the least in 15 years

During 2025, the U.S. electric power sector retired 2.6 gigawatts (GW) of coal-fired generating capacity at four power plants, the least since 2010. At the beginning of 2025, coal plant operators had planned to retire 8.5 GW of capacity; however, 4.8 GW of planned retirements were delayed to a future year, and the operators of two coal plants (1.1 GW) cancelled plans to retire. In addition, the operators of 1.2 GW of capacity planned for retirement in 2027 cancelled their closure plans, and a facility slated to retire in 2026 has delayed its closure until 2029.

Increasing fuel efficiency leads to decreasing gasoline consumption

Increasing fuel efficiency leads to decreasing gasoline consumption

Annual motor gasoline consumption in the United States decreased in 2025 even as vehicle miles traveled (VMT) increased because of increasing fuel efficiency, a trend we forecast will continue in 2026 and 2027. U.S. motor gasoline consumption averaged 8.9 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2025, 1% less than 2024 and 4% less than pre-pandemic demand in 2019. In our April Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), we estimate that motor gasoline consumption will continue to decline as forecast fuel efficiency increases and VMT growth slows.

To set up Appium on your notebook, you’ll need to meet the following requirements:

Operating System:
- Appium supports macOS, Linux, and Windows operating systems. Ensure your notebook runs one of these.
Node.js and NPM:
- Install Node.js (version in the SemVer range ^14.17.0 || ^16.13.0 || >=18.0.0).
- NPM (Node Package Manager) is usually bundled with Node.js, but you can upgrade it independently. Make sure your NPM version is >= 8.
Appium Installation:
- Install Appium globally using NPM:
```
npm install -g appium
```
Appium Server:
- Start the Appium server by running:
```
appium
```
- If you see output like “[Appium] Welcome to Appium v2.0.0,” the server is up and running ¹ ².
Additional Dependencies:
- To automate a specific platform (e.g., Android or iOS), refer to the documentation of the corresponding Appium driver(s) for any additional dependencies.
- Typically, you’ll need the developer toolchain and SDKs specific to the platform you’re testing ¹.

Remember to adapt the installation steps to your specific environment. Happy testing! 🚀📱

The disk space requirements for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm are relatively modest:

Appium:
- By itself, Appium is lightweight and doesn’t have significant disk space requirements.
- It can even run in resource-constrained environments like Raspberry Pi, as long as Node.js is available.
- No specific disk space quota is needed for Appium alone.
Node.js and npm:
- Node.js and npm are essential for running Appium.
- The installation of Node.js and npm doesn’t consume much disk space.
- However, ensure you have enough space for other development tools and dependencies.

In summary, a few gigabytes of free space should suffice for installing Appium, Node.js, and npm on your notebook. Happy testing! 🚀📱
