Natural Gas Just Hit $100! even USA where it is aplenty in Nebraska and when it used to sell for less than $10

What is happening in the energy sector?  We should  agree that:

1.  Fossil fuel is getting scarce;

2. There will be opportunity to make money in time of shortage;

3.  Everybody is cashing on the cold weather in USA and rest of Europe

4.  We really need alternative/renewable energy source

Natural Gas Just Hit $100!
By Jeff Siegel | Wednesday, February 12th, 2014
Jeff Siegel
When our plane touched down in Dallas, we were greeted by a runway covered in ice and snow.
There wasn't a salt truck or snowplow in sight, and quite frankly, the entire airport looked deserted.
dallas  airportIt took it us about fifteen minutes to actually pull up to the gate, where flight attendants warned us that some flights were being canceled due to the weather.
Three hours later and with a fresh shower of blue de-icing fluid, we were finally en route to our final destination in Palm Springs. We were the last flight out.
While some folks were bitching and moaning about the inconvenience, the truth is, Dallas is not prepared for snow and ice. Nor should it be. After all, the average winter temperature in Dallas is between 40 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit, and snow is very uncommon.
This year, however, uncommon weather conditions have been the norm — particularly in the south, where states of emergency have been issued.
As a result of arctic blasts ripping through the nation, power outages have been climbing. In fact, even in states where winter weather is not uncommon, energy shortages have caused utilities to ask customers to voluntarily curb usage. And, of course, natural gas prices soared.
In some parts of New England, the price of natural gas actually climbed to more than $100 per thousand cubic feet. This was the result of a combination of increased demand and a constrained supply of natural gas.
Yes, you read that correctly.
While we continuously rant about dirt-cheap natural gas and a supply bounty that'll last us a century, we've actually been seeing very tight natural gas supplies during these extreme weather conditions.

How the Deepwater Renaissance Can Line Your Pockets
Goldman Sachs predicts spending on ultra-deepwater drilling projects will grow a whopping 40% PER YEAR through 2016.
Energy consultancy Wood Mackenzie says spending on deepwater drilling is expected to rise from $43 billion last year to a whopping $114 billion in 2022.
And we've uncovered the perfect way for you to cash in on deepwater drilling's revival — with a chance to collect $17,300 per year for the next 9 years.
It's got nothing to do with owning Big Oil stocks, either.

A Silver Lining
It's pretty simple.
Yes, we still have a wealth of natural gas. But with so many states reliant upon natural gas now — particularly with older coal-fired power plants being put out of commission — infrastructure is lacking. The bottom line is that states looking to take advantage of cheap natural gas still need a way to get more of it.
Of course, such a crisis offers a pretty substantial opportunity for infrastructure plays. And we've certainly been taking advantage of these since 2013. But this kind of infrastructure can't be built like shopping malls. These are long, regulatory-heavy processes that take time.
The silver lining, however, is that this offers a nice boost of confidence for renewables.
In fact, last month, when the state of Texas delivered a new record for power usage due to insanely cold temperatures, it was wind power that helped the Lone Star State avoid power outages.
According to analyst Katie Valentine, cold weather and shutdowns of some power plants forced the Texas grid operator to begin implementing its emergency plan to meet demand. Valentine went on to write:
"...demand remained high, but increased output from West Texas wind farms enabled the state to avoid an emergency scenario. It wasn't the first time wind has helped Texas avoid power outages in extreme weather, either — in 2011, high wind outputs during peak demand helped the Texas grid weather 100-plus temperatures."
Interestingly, while Texas provides us with a wealth of oil and natural gas, it also boasts an enormous amount of installed wind capacity. The state actually ranks first for total megawatts installed.
More than seven percent of Texas' electricity comes from wind, and there are more wind-related jobs in the state than in any other state in the nation.
Believe it or not, there's even more installed wind power capacity in Texas than in the entire country of Canada.

How to Ride America's $398 Billion Robot Revolution for 1,578%
Like computers before them, robots are evolving at lightning speed... changing the world... and creating a wave of new millionaires in the process.
Says Bill Gates: "If I could only pick one thing, it would have to be robots."
Gates knows what he's talking about. In fact, one robot stock has already delivered a staggering 5,000% return.
Now you can tap this unstoppable trend for 5, 10, even 15 times your money — maybe a whole lot more...

Get Excited
Overall, global wind energy capacity has tripled over the past five years.
It's already at grid parity in many parts of the world, and continued declines in production costs will ensure that growth rates continue, particularly as natural gas prices inch north.
Sure, natural gas is still insanely cheap, but it won't be that way for long.
A wealth of new infrastructure will accelerate consumption, and more exports are virtually guaranteed at this point. As one who has a financial interest in domestic oil and gas, I'm certainly excited about this. You should be, too.
In fact, if you're not already positioned to profit from the continued demand for domestic oil and gas, a great way to get started is with this new retirement plan that's actually backed by the oil companies.
It's one of the safest ways to generate retirement income I've ever seen.
To a new way of life and a new generation of wealth...
