Conference ·
OSTI ID:6014707
;
The cost of LNG peakshaving plants has escalated since previous cost estimates were published in the mid-1970's. New standard for plant siting, design, and construction have also resulted in increased costs. Despite increasing costs the use of LNG is expected to increase in the next several years reflecting both its cost competitiveness for peakshaving and its versatility in utility company applications. 6 figs., 2 tabs.
