That market has disappeared because of the uncertainty (higher) natural gas prices.

Thank the environuts for making sure new power generating stations can't use coal or nuclear energy. So, they turned to gas.

Simple supply and demand economics.

Actually, the market I was in was ideal for natural gas turbines. The turbine turned a generator and made up to 10 Megawatts of electricity (generally for factory or college campus usage) while the hot exhaust gas was used to heat water in a boiler to make steam for process usage or heating.
