The overview of the issue below was current as of the 2016 election. I n the 2016 presidential race, three of the four candidates believed that human activity was the primary cause of global climate change. This split aligned to some extent with election year polling. A Gallup poll conducted in March 2016 found that 64 percent of U.S. Adults said they were worried a "great deal" or "fair This is a big week for those of us fighting to protect the Clean Power Plan in court. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit is preparing to hear arguments on the merits of the historic measure to reduce climate pollution and protect public health. Furthermore, pending environmental regulations such as EPA’s Clean Power Plan and Mercury Air Toxics Rule, as well as nuclear waste disposal costs, mean that a large part of the state’s portfolio is subject to considerable regulatory risk. Renewable energy can serve as a financial hedge, reducing the state’s exposure to these risks. Sarah Staszak. No day in court: access to justice and the politics of judicial retrenchment. Oxford University Press, 2015. KF8748.S825 2015 A key ingredient in supplying affordable, reliable energy is coal, which only a few years ago supplied some 40 percent of the nation’s electricity and of which the U.S. Has hundreds of years "green energy" sources (wind turbines & solar panels) versus traditional energy sources (fossil fuels & nuclear power): advocates of green energy in a tailspin, a death spiral of an inadequate capacity to deliver electricity & the inability to compete with more reliable, affordable, & traditional energy sources - wind & solar energy as a fool Facing a triple threat: Doha, EPA and Congress Anthony Watts / December 3, 2012 They are putting our energy, economy, jobs, living standards, health and welfare at grave risk As Congress of Racial Equality national chairman Roy Innis emphasizes in his book, Energy Keepers / Energy Killers: The new civil rights battle: access to abundant, reliable, affordable energy is essential for individuals, families and communities that want to improve their lives and living standards. energy from plants using a diverse fuel mix that is expected to maintain a stable, reliable and affordable supply of electricity. Through our participation in the Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) energy markets, we supply a significant amount of electricity to … Hearing on “EPA’s Regulatory Threat to Affordable, Reliable Energy: The Perspective of Coal Communities” October 29, 2013 (As Prepared for Delivery) A century ago when my grandfather came to America, he worked in a coal mine. Things were different then. Mines were extremely dangerous. Roofs would collapse. Mine injuries and deaths were Although energy independence is a catchy sound bite, it should not be the policy goal. The biggest threat to America’s reliable and affordable energy is government intervention through unnecessary regulations, subsidies, preferential tax treatment, and other market-distorting policies.

Alford’s assertion bucks with the EPA’s own researchers. To put that in perspective, the UNFCC run directly counter to allowing the affordable, reliable, and widely available energy essential for combating poverty. Energy Initiative—A Focus on The 2009 Union of Concerned Scientists study of a 25-percent--2025 renewable energy standard found that such a policy would create more than three times as many jobs (more than 200,000) as producing an equivalent amount of electricity from fossil fuels.In contrast, the entire coal industry employed 160,000 people in 2016. The role of a diverse electricity generation portfolio. House of Representatives. 135 pages. And hinder our ability to provide reliable and affordable electricity to our communities and customers. There is another unique feature to coal that must be considered from an energy security perspective. Coal is a solid and physically stable Every time we try to fit the square peg of arbitrarily intermittent, non-coincident-peaking, low-EROI, low-capacity factor, diffuse, remote, self-congesting, high-LCOE wind and solar energy into the round hole of a reliable and affordable electricity, we get the same negative results. Last April, Energy Secretary Rick Perry request a study of America’s electric grid to examine potential problems and solutions to maintain reliability. The study is of particular importance to family businesses who rely on affordable and reliable sources of electricity to run their businesses. The Coalition for Affordable and Reliable Energy (CARE) today praised President Bush's call for a comprehensive energy strategy to help America meet the energy needs of a growing economy in environmentally responsible ways. Federal investment in nuclear power urged (posted 04/28/05) The policies are achievable and will preserve a reliable grid. Large scale energy storage will be an essential component to the energy grid, which is good for the rural economy. When utilities make resource decisions they take a long-term perspective. Carbon Pollution Emission Guidelines for Existing Stationary Sources: Electric Utility Generating Units reliable supply of affordable energy. The final rule gives states the flexibility to implement a broad range of approaches will cause harm to communities that are dependent on coal. API: The State of American Energy Report 2015 1.

Judith Curry From the U.S. House of Representatives Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Energy and Power are holding a hearing today Tuesday, March 8, 2011, at 10:00 a.m. Entitled, “Climate Science and EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Regulations.” As per the committee's web site: Full Committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-MI) and Rep. Whitfield have joined Democratic leaders… EPA's 2008 Report on the Environment demonstrates the importance of scientifically sound information to help us understand the state of the environment, identify areas of concern, and monitor progress. We can all celebrate the fact that our air is cleaner, our water is purer, and our land is better protected than it was just a generation ago. Threats and Opportunities of Distributed Power Generation Baseload coal power is declining due to the combination of economic forces and strong emissions regulations such as the EPA's Clean Power Plan. A sustainable and affordable energy supply is no longer enough. Nations must also strive to have an independent energy supply. In October 2015, Energy Innovation launched Energy Policy Solutions, an assessment of climate and energy policies to help meet decarbonization goals. We created a computer model, the Energy Policy Simulator, to quantitatively measure the cost and emissions impacts of more than 50 policies across all economic sectors.
