Consumers are able to offset their carbon emissions by purchasing credits to fund projects which avoid or reduce emissions, such as
biomass generation plants and wind farms.
As a result, $ 12 billion has gone to more than 72,000 projects in the U.S., including solar and wind installations, hydrokinetic projects in rivers, and
biomass generation plants on farms.
Investing in NativeEnergy Help Build offsets can accelerate the transition from fossil fuel to
biomass generation.
Implementation of the Clean Power Plan can either increase or decrease projected
biomass generation depending on the emission rate applied to biomass generation in the compliance calculation.
At this price, coal fired, gas fired and
biomass generation is priced out of the market, so to ensure that at least some new gas - fired capacity is built, the agency is introducing separate categories — allowing fossil fuel and biomass plants to bid against each other, while wind projects compete in a separate auction.
Also included in the proposal are plans for what would be two of the largest offshore wind generation dams in the world and
a biomass generation plant for energy.
The message to Premier Wynne should be: the «Aging at Home» and «Long - Term Energy Plan» (increasing supplies from expensive and intermittent generation from wind, solar and
biomass generation) and time - of use (TOU) rates instituted by your government are in conflict, and create energy poverty.
Although relatively inexpensive for electricity generation — there are practical limits to deployment of hydro, geothermal and
biomass generation.
