We produced a high-level forecast of peak demand growth for New York City and Long Island between 2014 and 2020. We forecasted demand that is in excess of current pipeline and regional peak shaving capacity in 2020; estimated costs associated with serving demand in excess of capacity with i) incremental pipeline expansions back to the Marcellus and ii) increased reliance on regional peak shaving LNG, assuming such expansions are constructed and available by 2020; and a report summarizing our analysis and conclusions.
