Through June, less gas was used in 2005 than 2004.

The heating season wasn't the problem - it was the cooling season. We shattered our previous peak electric load this summer, two days in a row. We set weekend generation records, and week-long records. Many utilities had the same kind of results. We ran gas turbines more days this year than ever before. This was a very hot summer. You can see that the June consumption in 2005 already surpassed the same month in 2004 and the difference grew with the heat. July and August should show a marked increase. September probably would as well, though the effects of the hurricane on not only gas production but also electrical consumption likely weakened demand a bit.
