A Winter’s Tale: What are the energy challenges ahead?
In February 2021, a series of severe winter storms swept across the US due to the polar jet stream dipping, which allowed the polar vortex to push Arctic air across the US.
As we come back into Winter, the US is expected to see net demand for electricity increase by around 1% relative to last year’s levels. While this doesn’t sound much, it could have big impacts. With the current “energy crunch” being felt across much of the world, if your energy bills are not managed, then this winter could result in high energy costs.
