EIA projects total U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions to be relatively flat through 2050

EIA Oil & Gas 360 Publishers Note: Flat is better than increase. Transforming the current energy structure is a momentous task, and needs to be implemented while keeping the economy going. People need to remember – The United States is not the leading pollution generating country in the world.  In the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) Annual Energy Outlook 2020 (AEO2020) Reference

Trump administration moves ahead on shrinking Utah monuments

Houston Chronicle SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The U.S. government implemented final management plans Thursday for two national monuments in Utah that President Donald Trump downsized more than two years ago that ensure lands previously off-limits to energy development will be open to mining and drilling despite pending lawsuits. The lands have generated little interest from energy companies in the

Fight to stop gas-powered generation plant may be futile

The Middletown Press “ISO-New England estimates that some 7,000 megawatts of electricity from higher-polluting coal- and oil-fired plants will be retired in the near future – creating a need for [NTE’s] cleaner, more efficient power,” Eves said. “To halt the Killingly project at this point would compromise power supply and reliability not just for the state of Connecticut but the entire

EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook 2020 projects consumption growing more slowly than production

EIA The AEO2020 Reference case projects domestic energy demand to grow 0.3% per year on average through 2050, slower than the average annual growth of 1.9% in U.S. gross domestic product. This projection is largely driven by continued increases in energy efficiency in the end-use sectors The AEO2020 Reference case, which serves as a baseline for exploring the effects of

EIA World net electricity by fuel, IEO 2019 Reference case - oilandgas360

EIA projects less than a quarter of the world’s electricity generated from coal by 2050

EIA By 2050, coal-fired generation comprises only 5% of the region’s generation mix. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration’s (EIA) International Energy Outlook 2019 (IEO2019), global electric power generation from renewable sources will increase more than 20% throughout the projection period (2018–2050), providing almost half of the world’s electricity generation in 2050. In that same period, global coal-fired generation will decrease

EIA expects U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions to decrease annually through 2021 - oilandgas360

EIA expects U.S. energy-related CO2 emissions to decrease annually through 2021

EIA Coal-fired generation alone has fallen from 28% in 2018 to 24% in 2019 and will fall further to 21% in 2020 and 2021. The natural gas-fired generation share rises from 37% in 2019 to 38% in 2020, but it declines to 37% in 2021. In its latest Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO), released on January 14, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)
