There have been a number of good reports on IRA impacts over the last year; this one adds new insights on the effects of new RE cost estimates and on proposed EPA power plant rules on gen mix, emissions, costs and other key variables. Try it, you'll like it.
Proposed EPA #GreenhouseGas regulations could halve emissions remaining after the conclusion of the Inflation Reduction Act. The finding is from a new Energy Pathways USA report that models the future of the US #EnergyTransition under the two policies: nicholasinstitute.duke.edu/a…

Serge Bakire earned an int'l Master of Environmental Policy degree that was a little more international than usual. The program is based in China & Durham, but due to #COVID19 he did his studies mostly from Rwanda

Congratulations to C2ES for its wisdom in hiring @NatKeohane to be its new President (and congratulations to Nat, as well)!
Enormously excited to be joining @C2ES_org as President, filling @BobPerch's big shoes.
This is the decisive decade for climate change. I'm thrilled to build on the organization's proud history of crafting ambitious, durable & pragmatic climate solutions.

Thoughts on China's climate direction in the @SCMPNews : the power of environmental inspectors, emissions caps in govt planning, and the effectiveness of China’s ETS scmp.com/comment/opinion/art… #China #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis #NetZero #energytwitter #COP26 #climateleaderssummit
5/5 Xi's most tangible statement was that China to strictly control coal now, strictly limit coal growth during the 14FYP (2020-2025), & ramp coal down during the 15FYP (2025-2030). We'll see; the level at which that growth ends and peaking happens is the essential business here.
4/5 Xi doubled-down on the importance of common but differentiated commitments b/t developed and developing countries - a division many would like to see erode
3/5 Xi reiterated 2030 emissions peaking and 2060 neutrality commitments without going further - will disappoint some but is unsurprising; current commitments were announced only ~7 months ago and were unlikely to change at a US-hosted forum
2/5 1) Xi tonally focus on balance and harmony with nature, and the new development philosophies embedded in ecocivilization tenets - no surprise
1/5 President Xi just addressed the Leaders Summit on Climate - the first international head of state on the docket - some takeaways to follow: #LeadersClimateSummit #ClimateAction #climate #China #COP26
For Asian economies to meet their #netzero climate targets, businesses - both private and state-owned - must drive change. Come hear about what's happening and what's to come from @Caspar Chiquet, Qian Wu, & Rachel Fleishman on March 18(US)/March 19(Asia): nicholasinstitute.duke.edu/e…
