Cooling Greenhouse Renewable Energy 
Energy and Climate Law
SEPTEMBER 18, 2020
Until 2030 the EU shall emit 55 % less Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG), compared to 1990 levels. According to the Communication, buildings and power generation can make the largest and most cost-efficient emissions reductions, in the order of 60% and more compared to 2015, to reach the 55% greenhouse gas emissions reduction target (p.8).

Section 115 was probably aimed at more localized pollution problems like acid rain, but greenhouse gases unquestionably cause serious harm in other countries. The production and transportation of oil and gas also cause significant environmental impacts, as does the use of enormous amounts of water for cooling the generators.

But do not doubt this: there is currently enough power generation and transmission currently to serve the increase in charging load from EV purchases in the next few years, particularly if they are charged at times when other demands for power are less (such as overnight) or at times of high renewable energy generation.

This is mainly a result of coal generation being replaced by natural gas generation (and to a smaller extent renewable energy sources like wind and solar) and energy efficiency improvements, due in part to Act 129 [utility energy efficiency program]. from 2019 to 2020 and 44.4% from 2005 to 2020.

However, much of the attention paid to the flood risk of power plant sites has centered on nuclear plants, which also require a water source for the creation of steam, as well as for keeping the plant cool in an emergency.

Natural CO2 refrigeration at the ice rinks to 100% renewables-powered venues are just some of the technologies implemented. Cooling ice rinks. For the first time at any Olympics, China is using CO2, collected from industrial waste gases, to cool ice rinks in its four ice sports venues. Fully powered by renewable energy.

A report commissioned by the Ontario Power Authority (now the Independent Electricity System Operator) identified 64 potential offshore wind power sites in the Great Lakes that could produce nearly 35,000 MW of electricity which is 50 per cent more than our current energy demand. As the U.S. And without the pollution that gas plants cause.
