Some continue to burn coal, for example, because there are no other economically feasible choices for them. “We Efficient coal-burning plants Shutting down coal power plants completely is unlikely to happen anytime soon, he predicted, especially since many countries are building new ones that have 40-year life spans.

The use of more clean energy, particularly in Alberta which is the Canadian province with the highest amount of thermally generated power in Canada, is considered particularly important. At the moment 90 per cent of electricity in Alberta is produced through greenhouse gas emitting methods such as by burning coal or natural gas.

At present, PHEV technology alone is equipped to improve the current electric grid. The car can refuel during periods of low demand on the grid, and if equipped with a bi-directional charger, can actually replenish the grid with excess energy gleaned from a renewable resource.

Renewables provide a less expensive and eco-friendly energy source as a means to handle the growing pressure on the grid caused by multiple factors including extreme temperature fluctuations driving up demand for more electric heating and cooling. In 2019, around 11% of global primary energy came from renewable technologies.

To reach the 80x30 goal, the US power grid would need to add between 60 and 80 GW of new clean power every year (double the record 35 GW of renewables added in 2020). To that end, the CES, over its non-indicative name (it has little in common with, for instance, Canada's Clean Fuel Standard ) is more than just carbon bookkeeping.

GM knows better and guards against making fraudulent claims.
