Summer Power Outages Coming Soon!!

In this episode of the Energy News Beat Daily Standup, the host, Michael Tanner covers several major topics impacting the energy sector, including warnings of potential summer power outages in the U.S. due to a strained grid, driven by retiring fossil fuel plants and slower renewable growth. He also discusses the looming rise in California gas prices, which could reach $9 due to refinery closures, and the economic impact of Governor Newsom's oil policies. Additionally, Tanner highlights Saudi Aramco's profit drop due to weak oil prices and an M&A deal where Whitehawk Minerals acquires Phoenix Minerals, signaling a bullish stance on natural gas.
