EI’s Michelle Solomon explains how advanced conductors can up to double transmission capacity on existing lines in a matter of months.

EI’s Michelle Solomon predicts that most coal plants will close rather than install costly technology to capture carbon emissions.

Jeff Rissman discusses his recent book, Zero-Carbon Industry, and explains the potential for industrial decarbonization.

EI research finds that upgrading existing lines with advanced conductors could spur a nearly four-fold increase in transmission capacity expansion by 2035 compared to a new-build-only approach.

The EPA’s final rule allows states to keep online retiring power plants for an additional year, according to EI’s Michelle Solomon, this long lead time should prevent supply shocks.

EI’s Michelle Solomon explains that the new EPA rules will get utilities to think more proactively about how they are going to replace retiring coal plants.

EI’s Nik Sawe discusses why we have a hard time properly perceiving the risk of climate change through neuroscience and economics.

EI research finds that coal-fired power plants are uncompetitive against clean energy and energy storage in nearly every state in America.

The technology we need to transition to a clean economy exists, Jeff Rissman’s book Zero Carbon Industry provides the roadmap for decarbonizing the industrial sector.

EI’s Mike O’Boyle explains that although there is technology available to burn hydrogen in a gas turbine, it is not widespread yet.

EI’s Jeff Rissman explains how thermal batteries can reduce energy costs since they bypass surcharges that are built into grid electricity rates.

EI’s Mike O’Boyle explains that short-term investments by utilities should prioritize low-regrets, flexible options that avoid locking in expensive and potentially stranded assets

Jeff Rissman’s Zero-Carbon Industry outlines the technologies and policies that combat the rise in greenhouse gas emissions in the industrial sector.

Approximately 30 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions produced in the U.S. comes from industry, Jeff Rissman discusses how we can decarbonize this sector.

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

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.
