And fossil fuel power plants may not stick to their retirement schedules for a variety of reasons. The EPA’s Social Cost of Carbon was adjusted to 2025 to align with the emissions year of the NO x and SO 2 estimates.) GW of gas capacity set to retire, but also slightly outpacing the planned additions of wind power.
