EIA Projects 5% Decrease in Fossil-Fuel-Based CO2 Emissions in 2009; Little Change in Emissions from Gasoline

Green Car Congress

AUGUST 12, 2009

In its current version of the Short Term Energy Outlook ( STEO ), the US Energy Information Administration projects a 5% decline in fossil-fuel-based CO 2 emissions in 2009. The decrease was driven by the economic downturn, combined with a significant switch from coal to natural gas as a source of electricity generation, according to the EIA.

Factors contributing to the 7% drop in emissions in 2009. While emissions have declined in three out of the last four years, EIA noted, 2009 was “ exceptional ”. In addition to a decline in gross domestic product (GDP) in 2009 of 2.4%, the energy intensity of the economy (energy consumed per dollar of GDP) declined 2.4%

Smart grids, for example, make it easier and cheaper to replace fossil-fired power with renewables without jeopardizing the reliability of the energy system.
