EIA: Energy efficiency can reduce emissions, the cost of a Clean Energy Standard
The Energy Collective
Share
On Nov. 30, the Energy Information Administration released an Analysis of Impacts of a Clean Energy Standard. The study was requested by Sen. Jeff Bingaman, Chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. The analysis examined the impacts of a "clean energy standard" or CES - a requirement that electric utilities meet an increasing portion of their generation from "clean" energy resources including renewable, natural gas, and nuclear energy, as well as coal with carbon capture and storage. The primary analysis did not include energy efficiency, but one of the alternative cases that EIA examined illustrated the positive impacts of energy efficiency in reducing the costs of and the emissions from a CES.
