We're closing out the year with our final podcast of 2025, looking back at the biggest stories and revisiting the predictions we made at the start of the year. How did we do? 2025 delivered volatility and plenty of surprises, along with a long list of developments with real consequences for energy, both clean energy and traditional oil and gas. We cover major policy shifts, including the election of the Mark Carney Liberals in Canada, the introduction of Bill C-5, the launch of the Major Projects Office, the Ottawa–Alberta Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), and growing political support for LNG. We also review changes in the United States, including tariffs and the One Big Beautiful Bill (OBBB), which rolled back many of America's generous clean energy subsidies.  Another recurring theme this year was the surge in expectations for AI data center electricity demand—including in Canada, where three proposed projects in Alberta are moving closer to a final investment decision.It's been a whirlwind year. Jackie and Peter wish everyone a wonderful holiday break, and we'll return in 2026.Content referenced in this podcast:  The Hub.ca, Have we really hit peak oil?

In this Data Center Frontier Trends Summit 2025 session—moderated by Stu Dyer (CBRE) with panelists Aad den Elzen (Solar Turbines/Caterpillar), Creede Williams (Exigent Energy Partners), and Adam Michaelis (PointOne Data Centers)—the conversation centered on a hard truth of the AI buildout: power is now the limiting factor, and the grid isn't keeping pace. Dyer framed how quickly the market has escalated, from “big” 48MW campuses a decade ago to today's expectations of 500MW-to-gigawatt-scale capacity. With utility timelines stretched and interconnection uncertainty rising, the panel argued that natural gas has moved from taboo to toolkit—often the fastest route to firm power at meaningful scale. Williams, speaking from the IPP perspective, emphasized that speed-to-power requires firm fuel and financeable infrastructure, warning that “interruptible” gas or unclear supply economics can undermine both reliability and underwriting. Den Elzen noted that gas is already a proven solution across data center deployments, and in many cases is evolving from a “bridge” to a durable complement to the grid—especially when modular approaches improve resiliency and enable phased buildouts. Michaelis described how operators are building internal “power plant literacy,” hiring specialists and partnering with experienced power developers because data center teams can't assume they can self-perform generation projects. The panel also “de-mystified” key technology choices—reciprocating engines vs. turbines—as tradeoffs among lead time, footprint, ramp speed, fuel flexibility, efficiency, staffing, and long-term futureproofing. On AI-era operations, the group underscored that extreme load swings can't be handled by rotating generation alone, requiring system-level design with controls, batteries, capacitors, and close coordination with tenant load profiles. Audience questions pushed into public policy and perception: rate impacts, permitting, and the long-term mix of gas, grid, and emerging options like SMRs. The panel's consensus: behind-the-meter generation can help shield ratepayers from grid-upgrade costs, but permitting remains locally driven and politically sensitive—making industry communication and advocacy increasingly important. Bottom line: in the new data center reality, natural gas is here—often not as a perfect answer, but as the one that matches the industry's near-term demands for speed, scale, and firm power.

The heating season is off to a roaring start, with forecasters calling for one of the chilliest Decembers in recent memory. IAF Advisors owner Kyle Cooper joins NGI senior editor Andrew Baker to discuss the implications for natural gas supply, demand and prices as winter gets underway. Cooper breaks down how soaring heating demand could rapidly deplete natural gas inventories, and send already elevated gas prices even higher. He cites the example of last winter, a normal one by historical standards, that nonetheless triggered a massive pull on storage in January. Cooper also discusses the impacts of record LNG exports and the evolving electricity mix on natural gas power burns and storage trends. As demand continues to rise, Cooper explains how the supply picture will evolve as producers in the Haynesville Shale, Permian Basin and Appalachia adapt to a constantly changing market.

In this episode, we cover the big economic, energy, and tech stories shaping the nation: ⚖️ Trump's tariffs under fire – first Supreme Court lawsuit to recoup costs

Today's episode is packed with news, insights, and jaw-dropping revelations: ⚖️ Hoge files first Supreme Court tariff lawsuit – could cost taxpayers billions

What if planting trees could be not just good for the planet, but also a profitable business? In this episode, I'm talking with Ben Dell, the founder and CEO of Chestnut Carbon — a company that's raised nearly $400 million, including $250 million of that in 2025, to turn farmland back into thriving native forests across the United States. And he's already forging major carbon removal deals with the likes of Microsoft and Mercedes F1. Ben's journey is a fascinating one: he began his career in oil and gas private equity, helping fossil-fuel companies optimize their operations. But during the pandemic, he had what you might call a carbon epiphany. Seeing how few trustworthy carbon-removal projects existed, he decided to create his own — one that would make measurable, verifiable, and permanent carbon storage not just possible, but investable. In our conversation, Ben explains why carbon is a commodity, and how to prove you've really stored it. He talks about how Chestnut buys up marginal cattle-grazed land and restores it into biodiverse forests — with already more than 17 million trees planted. And he goes over why he proudly calls Chestnut "conservation for profit" — a business model that needs no subsidies, just land, good science, and a lot of patience. Ben also talks about the challenges of scaling a nature-based startup, the importance of grit over glamour, and why he believes restoring forests can be one of America's most investable climate solutions. So if you've ever wondered how capitalism might actually reverse deforestation — not cause it — this episode will give you a hopeful, grounded look at what that future could look like. Discussed in this episode Ben is a managing partner at Kimmeridge. Business Insider profile and a Wall Street Journal profile on Ben's work. Our past episode with author Mike Grunwald. You can see Chestnut's patent, "Systems and methods for forest surveying," here. Chestnut's offtake partnership with Microsoft and a similar agreement with Mercedes F1. Ben recommends podcasts such as Lex Fridman's and Invest Like the Best. Get to Know Ben Dell Ben Dell is a Managing Partner of Kimmeridge and oversees investment activity across the firm. He is closely involved in the screening of new geological opportunities and in the negotiation and execution of investment strategies.  Prior to founding Kimmeridge, Mr. Dell was a Senior Equity Research Analyst for Oil and Gas Exploration and Production (E&P) at Sanford C. Bernstein, where he was ranked first three times in the Institutional Investor Research Survey for coverage of E&Ps. Mr. Dell was also ranked for Natural Gas and for Oil Services and Equipment coverage. Mr. Dell joined Sanford C. Bernstein in 2003. Prior to joining Bernstein, Mr. Dell was employed at British Petroleum (BP) in its M&A and finance group. Before moving into the finance field, Mr. Dell also held positions as an exploration geologist and geophysicist across several of BP's regional business units.  Mr. Dell is currently CEO of Chestnut Carbon, a nature-based carbon removal developer and is on the Board of Caturus HoldCo, LLC., a large private natural gas producer in South Texas. He previously held positions as Chairman of the Board and interim CEO of Civitas Resources, Inc. ("Civitas"), a company that formed from the merger of Extraction Oil & Gas, Inc. and Bonanza Creek Energy, Inc.  Mr. Dell earned an undergraduate degree and a master's degree in Earth Sciences from St. Peter's College, Oxford.

Canada-based TC Energy announced this week that the pipeline, which runs through Suffolk and Chesapeake, is officially in service.

Talk of energy has been storming the headlines recently. A long, cold winter is approaching and prices are soaring, due to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict... Russia has long been Europe's main energy supplier, but reducing dependence on Russian energy has now become critical, with many countries putting sanctions or boycotts in place. Meanwhile Russia stands accused of sabotaging gas pipelines which lead to the EU. In addition to a geopolitical crisis, Europe is now experiencing an energy crisis marked by the increase in the price of gas. In an attempt to solve this problem, the United States has proposed a solution, in the form of liquefied natural gas. What's special about this gas? And why are we talking about it now?

 Is the future of natural gas actually brighter than we're being told? In this episode of the Jake & Gino podcast, Gino and Jake sit down with Jay Bhatty, founder and CEO of NetGasHub.com, to unpack how data, pipelines, and smart policy are reshaping the future of natural gas in a world obsessed with renewables, AI, and exploding energy demand.Jay explains why the U.S. is the “Saudi Arabia of natural gas” and how that advantage impacts manufacturing, data centers, and your wallet. He breaks down how traders use data from pipelines and price differentials to profit in the energy markets, and why physics—not politics—is often the real constraint on wind and solar. You'll learn how the future of natural gas fits into a balanced energy mix (coal, nuclear, solar, wind), why bright young talent is flocking to the intersection of energy and technology, and how investors can gain exposure to pure natural gas plays. Jay also shares his entrepreneur framework—why you should build “painkiller” businesses, how to spot real-world pain points, and why boring, cash-flowing companies may be the best opportunities of all.Connect with Jay Bhatty: NetGasHub.com • LinkedIn • Jay's book on AmazonChapters:00:00 – Introduction to the Energy Industry and Its Importance 02:55 – The Role of Data in Natural Gas Efficiency05:56 – Natural Gas vs. Renewable Energy Sources09:04 – The Future of Manufacturing and Natural Gas11:49 – Attracting Talent to the Energy Sector14:54 – Entrepreneurship Framework in the Energy Industry19:38 – Opportunities in Small Businesses20:56 – Exploring Natural Resources22:46 – The Future of Data Centers27:43 – The Energy Mix: Finding Balance30:03 – Investing in Energy Diversification31:36 – The Future of Energy: A Balanced Approach34:05 – Gino wraps it up  We're here to help create multifamily entrepreneurs...

Rural Alberta is not backing down. In recent town halls, long-time farmers and landowners jeered senior UCP political staffers pitching the government's plan for cleaning up decades of oil and gas well problems. They see broken trust — and they're demanding real accountability. In this episode, we're joined by Drew Anderson of The Narwhal (3:00), who's been in the thick of this coverage.

This week on the podcast, Jackie and Peter share their insights on Canada's 2025 federal budget, released last week and expected to pass on November 17. They also briefly introduce the topic of COP30, which started the day they recorded, and Bill Gates' recent memo on climate.  They discuss several aspects of the budget, including the size of the deficit and debt, government plans to reduce day-to-day operating expenses, and several tax measures—notably, new Productivity Super Deduction and the updated accelerated capital cost depreciation rules for LNG, which are supportive, but still less generous than the Productivity Super Reduction. They also examine the introduction of new investment tax credits (ITCs) for clean energy. These incentives were largely anticipated, having been announced in the previous budget but never enacted. A major focus is the proposed Canada Climate Competitiveness Strategy, which aims to strengthen industrial carbon pricing while preventing carbon leakage. Jackie and Peter explore related policy commitments, including maintaining methane-reduction regulations and the Clean Electricity Regulation, along with signals of possible flexibility around the removal of the oil and gas emissions cap. However, they note that such flexibility may depend on the deployment at scale of carbon capture and storage, which remains uncertain.Content referenced in this podcast includes: Canada Budget 2025 Bill Gates Memo “Three tough truths about climate”  (October 2025) The Hub.ca article by Trevor Tombe “There's a big gap between rhetoric and reality” (November 2025) Please review our disclaimer at: https://www.arcenergyinstitute.com/disclaimer/ Check us out on social media: X (Twitter): @arcenergyinstLinkedIn: @ARC Energy Research Institute Subscribe to ARC Energy Ideas PodcastApple PodcastsAmazon MusicSpotify

More propane production. More exports. More inventories. The U.S. propane market, already oversupplied, is becoming even more so, putting additional downward pressure on prices. At the same time, surging demand from LNG exports and gas-fired power generation is pushing natural gas prices higher. Electricity prices are climbing too, further tilting the scales in propane's favor. The big question is, will these shifting fuel-price relationships move the needle on retail propane demand.

In this episode, we dive into what's driving natural gas prices higher and what mineral and royalty owners can expect in 2026 and beyond. We explore how two major forces are reshaping the market: the explosive growth of AI data centers that require massive amounts of electricity, and the continued expansion of liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports to meet global demand. We break this all down into real numbers and what it could mean for natural gas prices in 2026 and beyond.
