In the absence of being able to make that policy call at this time on dangerous interference, what we're doing as an interim measure is working bottom up to see how aggressive can we be in finding a pathway to low - carbon power generation from coal, because that accounts for more than 50 percent of emissions; how aggressive can we be in transitioning to a much greater diversity of fuel supply than petroleum, and vehicle technology, and that's 20 percent of emissions; and then what can we do much more rapidly to halt deforestation, which is 20 percent of emissions.

And as the English have done and as the Chinese and the Indians and etc will still do, they will use coal, lots of coal plus gas and oil for power generation until some capitalist somewhere with a very good idea on how to reduce costs and still make a fortune comes along and devises / discovers or restructures an old technology or a new power generation technology that is more efficient, lower cost, more profitable, just as reliable as fossil fueled, those coal, oil and gas generators

However, you don't want to argue for a rational solution — i.e. cheap nuclear power (which also happens to be 10 to 100 times safer than our currently accepted main source of electricity generation, fossil fuel) and also happens to be a near zero emission technology (in fact much lower than renewables given they need fossil fuel backup, and given solar needs about 10 times as much material per TWh on an LCA basis).

As biomass is a carbon neutral fuel, the power generation will have zero GHG emissions.

wind and solar do not replace fossil fuel generation, as that has to be maintained at and close to previous levels to cater for power needs when the unreliable, unpredictable wind and solar generation systems go off line or fail or just don't produce much power.

If power generator owners and governments had decreed that the most inefficient and most unreliable, most costly power generation systems that could be conceived to generate power for our modern civilisation were to be the norm then the so called renewable energy systems of wind and solar along with highly inefficient fossil fuel burning idling generators as standby's when the renewables fail to produce power then it is doubtful that a more hopelessly inefficient and unreliable system could be devised for a civilisation that depends so utterly on having dead steady, totally reliable, at call power every second of every day to run that civilisation's entire very sophisticated structures

Impacts of California's Five - Year (2012 - 2016) Drought on Hydroelectricity Generation — This comprehensive assessment of the costs to California of lost hydroelectricity during the five - year California drought (from October 2011 to the end of September 2016; the official California «water year» runs from October 1 to September 30) reveals an increase in electricity costs of approximately $ 2.45 billion, as well as a 10 percent increase in the release of carbon dioxide from California power plants due to the additional combustion of fossil fuels for electricity gGeneration — This comprehensive assessment of the costs to California of lost hydroelectricity during the five - year California drought (from October 2011 to the end of September 2016; the official California «water year» runs from October 1 to September 30) reveals an increase in electricity costs of approximately $ 2.45 billion, as well as a 10 percent increase in the release of carbon dioxide from California power plants due to the additional combustion of fossil fuels for electricity generationgeneration.

C. Technically, it is still possible to solve the climate problem, but there are two essential requirements: (1) a simple across - the - board (all fossil fuels) rising carbon fee [2] collected from fossil fuel companies at the domestic source (mine or port of entry), not a carbon price «scheme,» and the money must go to the public, not to government coffers, otherwise the public will not allow the fee to rise as needed for phase - over to clean energy, (2) honest government support for, rather than strangulation of, RD&D (research, development and demonstration) of clean energy technologies, including advanced generation, safe nuclear power.

The plan errs by placing its focus on preventing fuel supply disruptions at larger power plants and ignores the potential resiliency benefits of fuel - free, distributed generation such as wind and solar, clean energy advocates said.

And in this episode of the nation's climate history, once again, the same industry that foresaw the ultimate end of coal as a main fuel for power generation later supported actions to cast doubt on the science and to stave off policies to address the problem, funding groups that deny the scientific consensus and joining the main industry group that opposed participation in the first climate treaty.

The study finds that the growing need for a secure energy supply is driving power users to invest in distributed generation, using technologies such as small engines or turbines, fuel cells or photovoltaic systems.

The growing demand for the services provided by distributed generation will act as a gateway for new power generation technologies, such as fuel cells.

Tomczyck (1997)(28) states the following... «The power generation and municipal solid waste management industries share an interest in the use of process engineered fuel (PEF) comprised mainly of paper and plastics as a supplement to conventional fuels.

And, as a result of human ingenuity and the free market (which got us where we are today), new technologies will come along that will eventually replace fossil fuels for many of the lower added - value end uses, such as electrical power generation or transportation.
