The Intermountain Power Agency (IPA) has awarded Mitsubishi Hitachi Power Systems (MHPS) a contract for two M501JAC power trains for the Intermountain Power Plant (IPP) in Delta, Utah. This fuel mixture will reduce carbon emissions by more than 75% compared to the retiring coal-fired technology. Earlier post.).

This decline was due almost entirely to a drop in coal consumption. Coal-fired power generation fell by a record 18% year-on-year to its lowest level since 1975. An increase in natural gas generation offset some of the climate gains from this coal decline, but overall power sector emissions still decreased by almost 10%.

While more effort is needed to reach that goal, one energy organization has predicted that renewables will overtake coal generation as the world’s largest electricity source in early 2025. Solar PV and wind account for 95 percent of the predicted 7,300 GW renewable expansion between 2023 and 2028. In the U.S., In the U.S.,

US electric power sector CO 2 emissions have declined 28% since 2005 because of slower electricity demand growth and changes in the mix of fuels used to generate electricity, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA). In the United States, most of the changes in energy-related CO 2 emissions have been in the power sector.

The Project Koyash team at ASU designed a solar-powered air-filtration system that autonomously cleans polluted air in less than an hour. To improve air quality, burning unrefined coal for heat was banned. The system includes a solar panel, a battery, an Arduino microcontroller, an inverter, and a filter.
