EI analysis suggests policymakers to: provide utilities incentives to use advanced conductors, improve transmission planning, expand federal and state funding.

EI’s Silvio Marcacci explains that the U.S. must expand and strengthen the grid, and reconductoring transmission lines with advanced conductors can be the solution.

EI forecasts that the Biden administration’s historical and projected policies will have annual U.S. emissions decline to reach the 2030 goal.

EI’s Chris Busch explains how the recent EPA standards to cut air pollution from heavy-duty vehicles will pave the way for cheaper goods, increased domestic manufacturing, and job growth.

EI’s Jeff Rissman emphasizes that decarbonizing industry is feasible and underscores the importance of understanding the interconnectedness of technology and policy.

EI research finds that the majority of the U.S. struggles to add new clean energy resources fast enough to replace retiring assets.

EI’s Dan Esposito explains that without the right rules, hydrogen could make greenhouse gas emissions worse due to the 45V tax credit.

EI’s Jeff Rissman explains that although we have the technology that can produce all the goods we rely on without greenhouse gas emissions, the demand to commercialize these technologies has been low.

The EPA announced a final rule on “Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards for Heavy-Duty Vehicles,” which is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions up to 60 percent in 2032.

New research indicates that constructing new gas power plants may not be the most effective short-term solution for addressing load growth. Instead, the report suggests alternative options such as demand response programs and grid-enhancing technologies.

EI’s Sonia Aggarwal explains how investing in clean energy will create jobs, improve air quality, and allow the U.S. to meet the rising electricity demand.

EI’s Eric Gimon weighs in on microreactors and discusses the potential of nuclear reactors to diversify energy portfolios.

EI’s Mike O’Boyle calls regulations on coal facilities and new gas plants significant, adding that they would act as a guardrail on utilities.

EI research finds that public utility commissioners should avoid building new natural gas plants, and suggests that they focus their attention on expanding transmission.

EI’s Jack Conness explains how the IRA doesn’t pick winners on a partisan basis and that the $118 billion in private-sector investments is available for clean energy and manufacturing projects.

EI’s Sara Baldwin explains how the EV mandate will cut greenhouse gases and improve air quality while U.S. manufacturers can keep pace with foreign competitors.

EI’s Mike O’Boyle discusses concerns that an administration hostile to the IRA can defund and hollow out administrative capacity and roll back climate policies.

EI’s Rachel Goldstein describes the Identifying Violations Affecting Neighborhoods (IVAN) network which is an environmental monitoring system that enables residents to take an active role in air quality monitoring.

EI’s analysis reported that hydrogen would be difficult to contain in pipes and might only result in a minuscule reduction in greenhouse emissions.

New Energy Innovation research finds falling battery costs mean electric heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) in the U.S. could reach cost parity with diesel counterparts years earlier than expected– four of five vehicle classes could be on par with or cheaper than diesel counterparts by 2030.
