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

Green Car Congress

JUNE 20, 2009

There is no credible pathway toward prudent greenhouse gas stabilization targets without CO 2 emissions reduction from existing coal power plants. We may not see a strong CO 2 price signal for many years. In the interim, we need a large, focused, federal program to develop and demonstrate commercial-scale technologies.

National Research Council Report Recommends Setting a US Carbon Budget Through 2050; Concludes Known Technologies Not Sufficient to Meet Budget Goals

Illustration of the representative US cumulative GHG emissions budget targets:170 and 200 Gt CO2-eq (for Kyoto gases). A carbon-pricing system is the most cost-effective way to reduce emissions. Carbon pricing alone, however, is not enough to sufficiently reduce domestic emissions, the report warns. Source: NRC.
