These factors included a decline in the carbon intensity of the energy supply (CO 2 /British thermal units [Btu]) of 1.8%; and a 3.4% Specific circumstances, such as the very warm fourth quarter of 2015 and relatively low natural gas prices, put downward pressure on emissions as natural gas was substituted for coal in electricity generation.

The report, “ Renewable Power Generation Costs in 2014 ”, concludes that biomass, hydropower, geothermal and onshore wind are all competitive with or cheaper than coal, oil and gas-fired power stations, even without financial support and despite falling oil prices. Report highlights include: Cape Wind’s troubles. Source: IRENA.

There was also a slight increase in the carbon dioxide intensity of US energy supply (CO 2 per unit of energy) in 2010, which is in contrast to a drop of 2.4% Consumption of coal, the most carbon-intensive fossil fuel, rose by 6% in 2010 after falling by 12% in 2009. percent per year. —Acting EIA Administrator Howard Gruenspecht.
