Pennsylvania may join regional carbon-cap initiative

摘要

Coal-heavy Pennsylvania may join the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative per the executive order of Gov. Tom Wolf. The regional cap-and-trade program is identified as a key plank to meet emission goals in the state’s 2018 Climate Action Plan amidst a coal-heavy power plant fleet. IHS Markit Associate Director Patrick Luckow analyzes the implications of the program on the Keystone State in a just-released study.
