CO 2 emissions remain mostly level through 2050—nowhere close to meeting US climate goals. Carbon emissions remain high. This is in total opposition to the US commitment under the Paris Agreement to achieve a 50-52 percent emissions reduction below 2005 levels by 2030, and net-zero by 2050.

Ontario has a large potential supply of wind and solar energy that could be developed to help phase-out dirty gas plants. It estimated that we would need an additional 843 MW of solar and an additional 4,545 MW of wind capacity (along with a basket of other sources) to ensure the province’s energy needs are met. .

Any energy use entails carbon emissions, some more than others. — Ditching coal and natural gas for solar and wind. Renewable energy sources have been booming in the US (+262 % and over 4,600% from 2008 to 2016 for wind and solar, respectively. Wind power costs could drop another 50%.

There is talk that a global “hydrogen economy” can emerge to save the climate from carbon emissions. Hydrogen could power trucks, ships and planes and be used to produce everything from cement to steel and fertiliser. Hydrogen may have lost, to electricity, the competition to power the next generation of personal vehicles.

During the four days of emergency operations during the cold snap, from early February 15th to midnight February 18th, output levels of nuclear, natural gas, coal, and wind to the grid were 79.3 ERCOT also expected, during peak demand events in winter, to have power from wind represent about 27% of installed wind capacity.

Yang Fuqiang thinks it is unreasonable to make energy-producing provinces such as Inner Mongolia solely responsible for cutting carbon emissions. If it benefits, it has to help cut carbon. It has huge potential for renewables, with vast areas of sparsely populated land and plenty of wind and sun.
