Description
How could producing 25 percent of U.S. electricity and motor-vehicle transportation fuels from renewables by the year 2025 affect U.S. consumer energy expenditures and CO2 emissions? This report finds that reaching 25 percent renewables with limited impact on expenditures requires significant progress in renewable-energy technologies and biomass production. Without substantial innovation in these areas, expenditures could increase considerably. This report assesses the potential impact on U.S. consumer energy expenditures and CO2 emissions if 25 percent of U.S. electric power and motor fuels come from renewable resources by 2025.
