MIT Energy Initiative Publishes Report on Reducing CO2 Emissions from Existing Coal Plants

Green Car Congress

JUNE 20, 2009

The MIT Energy Initiative has released a new report on reducing carbon dioxide emissions from existing coal plants. In the interim, we need a large, focused, federal program to develop and demonstrate commercial-scale technologies. We urgently need technology options for these plants and policies that incentivize implementation.

Illustration of the representative US cumulative GHG emissions budget targets:170 and 200 Gt CO2-eq (for Kyoto gases). The US emitted approximately 7 gigatons of CO 2 equivalent in 2008 (the most current year for which such data were available). A carbon-pricing system is the most cost-effective way to reduce emissions.
