solar, wind, hydroelectric, and nuclear) as compared to the eastern US (EUS), where the electricity market is dominated by pollutant and precursor emitting combustion sources (i.e., coal, oil, natural gas, and biomass). Across scenarios, we found the more cars that transitioned to electric power, the better for summertime ozone levels.

According to Forbes , studies have found that solar and wind power is often cheaper than power from fossil fuels, even without financial assistance, and their daily operations undercut even the most cost-effective coal plants. It uses the power of wind pushing turbines to collect energy.

In addition, other studies have shown that increases in PM 2.5 , NO 2 , and ozone were associated with lower test scores that were “equivalent to the effects of short-term reductions of thousands of dollars in district median household income.”

This proposal reduces emissions contributing to fine particle (PM 2.5 ) and ozone nonattainment that often travel across state lines. SO 2 and NO x react in the atmosphere to form fine particle pollution and ground-level ozone (smog), which are linked to widespread illnesses and premature deaths. NO x emissions would drop by 52%.

power from renewable sources—wind, solar, geothermal, biomass or landfill gas, hydropower, and marine and hydrokinetic—for retail electricity suppliers beginning at 6% in 2012 and gradually rising to 25% in 2025 and continuing at that level through 2039. The draft establishes a Renewable Portfolio Standard—i.e., Clean Fuels and Vehicles.

A new report from the National Research Council examines and, when possible, estimates, “hidden” costs of energy production and use—such as the damage air pollution imposes on human health—that are not reflected in market prices of coal, oil, other energy sources, or the electricity and gasoline produced from them. cents per kWh.
