Not exact matches

Although APS plans to reduce its coal burn from the current 35 % to 17 % by 2029, by increasing its natural gas burn from 19 % to 35 %, it will actually increase its greenhouse gas emissions in the near term, since the global warming potential from methane, which is leaked at multiple points of the natural gas supply chain, is 86 times that of carbon over 20 years, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's 2013 report.

Weiss said that, while natural gas burns cleaner, the NETL study concluded that the end - to - end emissions involved in moving U.S. natural gas to an LNG export facility, then liquefying it, then shipping it across the ocean, then de-liquefying it, and shipping it to users in other countries, would be as energy and emissions intensive, or more, than using regionally produced coal — i.e., because of the LNG export supply chain, it has no advantage over coal.

However, the National Energy Technical Laboratory's (or NETL) just released «Life Cycle GHG Perspective on Exporting LNG from the U.S.» found that there are 50 percent more emissions from the natural gas export supply chain compared to coal's supply chain, offsetting the gains due to lower pollution from combustion.

This is because wood is both less efficient at the point of combustion and has larger processing and supply chain emissions than coal.
