With wind and even solar power increasingly competitive with coal and natural gas without subsidies, with many utilities needing to meet renewable portfolio standards, and with new EPA rules forcing coal plant retirements, the impact of lower oil prices on renewable energy in the US is expected to be insignificant.

That means that in some cases the removal of subsidies causes a switch to more emissions-intensive coal. Some of the models used even suggested a rise in emissions for some regions, such as Africa and India, as a result of switching from unsubsidized oil and gas to coal. The reason for this small overall effect is two-fold.

In contrast, the Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) program adopted by 29 states has varying goals from 10-40 percent renewable energy generation, deployed anywhere from 2013 to 2030. These companies have sunk costs invested in coal, gas and oil plants and are content in maximizing the return on these investments.
