The clean-energy transition that is one focus of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) and the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) will require big changes in our electric grid. On the demand side, switching our buildings, industries, and vehicles to electric power could double our electricity usage.

While it is a heavily polluting fossil fuel that is set to continue declining as a fuel source for US electricity generation over the next decade, coal still accounted for roughly 20 percent of the country’s generation in 2022. Fuel transport – Spring floods can hinder the transportation of fuels like coal.

Further, the going price of gas can be volatile and generally tracks very closely with US wholesale electricity prices, since the country grew so over-reliant on gas power plants throughout the 2010s. Last year, for the first time ever, US renewable electricity generation surpassed coal-fired electricity generation.

The president’s executive order aims to use the US government’s procurement power to achieve “carbon pollution-free electricity” by 2030 and net zero emissions by 2050. Thus, “24/7 carbon pollution-free electricity” requires that energy generation matches consumption, such as through storage capacity or sources other than wind or solar.
