These results indicate that coal and oil are the energy sources leading to most emissions, and that hydro, wind, and nuclear are the energy sources leading to least emissions. On the two extremes, coal and oil result in about 176 times the emissions from hydro.

Results from the study also suggest that with sufficient coal plant retirement and sufficient wind power, controlled charging could result in positive net benefits instead of negative. High Wind Future: In this scenario, they modified the future case to add wind plants sufficient to produce 20% of generation.

Arizona State University, in partnership with Fluidic Energy Inc., A novel process known as Syngas Chemical Looping (SCL), in which coal and biomass are converted to electricity and CO 2 is efficiently captured, has been successfully demonstrated on a laboratory scale. Energy Efficient Capture of CO 2 from Coal Flue Gas.

I would say that electricity is a vastly superior fuel for the light vehicle fleet,” said Willett Kempton , a professor and alternative energy specialist at the University of Delaware. Are we going to burn more oil, natural gas, or (gasp) coal to produce it? Wind, solar and nuclear could easily change our electrical sources.

Cap-and-trade was first tried on a significant scale twenty years ago under the first Bush administration as a way to address the problem of airborne sulfur dioxide pollution–widely known as acid rain–from coal-burning power plants in the eastern United States. Graham recently declared, “ Economy-wide cap-and-trade is dead. ” Reduced Output.
