We urgently need more action and oversight from policymakers at every level, from Congress to federal and state regulators, to address the consequences of methane gas overreliance head-on. Over the past 30 years, the use of gas in the power sector has more than tripled, now responsible for 37 percent of the power sector’s net generation.

According to the forecast, while economy-wide CO 2 emissions decrease from 2022 to 2037 due primarily to the growth in renewable energy replacing retiring coal plants, emissions do increase after 2037 from increased usage of natural gas. Renewable energy generation increases faster than any other technology.

We also evaluated the potential to accelerate the use of renewable energy dramatically through state-level renewable electricity standards, which have been major drivers of clean energy in recent decades. We found that states have technically feasible and highly beneficial ways to achieve 100-percent renewable energy.
