Cutting carbon emissions on the US power grid Boston MA (SPX) Mar 12, 2024 To help curb climate change, the United States is working to reduce carbon emissions from all sectors of the energy economy. Much of the current effort involves electrification - switching to electric cars for transportation, electric heat pumps for home heating, and so on. But in the United States, the electric power sector already generates about a quarter of all carbon emissions. "Unless we decarbonize our electric power grids, we'll just be shifting carbon emissions from one source to another," says ... read more |
