Nearly all of the alliance members have a renewable electricity standard (RES), which requires utilities in their jurisdiction to increase their use of renewable energy to a particular percentage by a specific year. We found that states have technically feasible and highly beneficial ways to achieve 100-percent renewable energy.

6 is still driving up Ohioans’ electricity bills—and undermining the state’s prospects for a clean energy future. 6 went into effect, Ohio ratepayers have paid more than $182 million to subsidize two 67-year-old coal-fired power plants operated by the Ohio Valley Electric Corporation (OVEC). Since H.B. But thanks to H.B.

Climate Alliance (USCA) can meet all of their electricity needs with renewable energy—while decarbonizing other sectors of the economy and ensuring equitable benefits to all communities. States have technically feasible and highly beneficial paths to achieving 100 percent renewable energy. by 2035 is needed.

These plants, which were originally slated to close in 2020, include the Ormond Beach Generating Station located in the predominantly Latinx, low-income community of Oxnard. Most notable of these polluting emissions are nitrogen oxides (NOx). It indeed accounts for 40% of the electricity currently generated for the grid.

Updated analysis from 2020 shows that emissions traced to the 88 largest carbon producers contributed approximately 60 percent?of This shift will require comprehensive energy policies to ensure the transition is equitable, but it can start to happen today. The same solutions will fix the energy crisis and the climate crisis.

If the SCAQMD’s development timeline holds, Proposed Rule 2305 will phase in on July 1, 2020. One of the most significant air quality challenges in the Basin is reducing emissions of the ozone precursor nitrogen oxides (NO x ) to meet the ozone standard attainment deadlines. Looking Forward.

Fortunately, I don’t have COPD and I didn’t contract asthma when I was young, perhaps partly because I grew up in a home with an electric range. The study concluded that these childhood asthma cases could have theoretically been prevented by using electric appliances. But other Washingtonians may not be as lucky.
