Report summary
This insight focuses on continued difficulties in developing gas pipeline projects in the US Northeast, especially considering the impact of coronavirus on the region. We identify new risks for infrastructure development and select specific projects to detail how opposition is slowing the regulatory approval and construction processes. The region has added 20 bcfd of pipeline capacity between 2017 and 2019, but the fate of new projects is still under threat. While the damage of coronavirus on the economy and the energy sector is still unfolding, we have provided a few takeaways for Northeast pipeline development amid current market uncertainties. This insight is part of a series that dives deep into the Northeast gas market. Two forthcoming insights will examine the near-term market impact of potential pipeline delays and cancelations, as well as long-term ramifications to the North American gas markets.
