Nevertheless, at the same time, the shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources has to be central in our transition to a low carbon society.

The pledges and determination shown by world governments at the Paris climate change talks in Paris meant there would likely be «further policies aimed at shifting the fuel - mix towards cleaner, lower - carbon fuels, with renewable energy, along with natural gas, the main beneficiary,» said Dale.

The most recent confirmation comes in Climate consequences of low - carbon fuels: The United States Renewable Fuel Standard, an article by researchers at the University of Minnesota in the Oct. 2016 peer - reviewed journal Energy Policy.

As costs shift from fossil fuels and the installation of expensive pollution controls at existing power plants to low - cost, underused energy efficiency and renewable energy, ratepayers will see a net benefit.

Compared to single - fuel programs, combined natural gas and electric energy efficiency programs often deliver additional energy and dollar savings at lower cost to utilities and consumers.

«Drillers fear that federal protections for more threatened and endangered animals could drive up their costs at a time when the industry is already battered by low oil prices, growing competition from renewable energy, and increasing attention from investors and regulators over the climate - altering impacts of fossil fuels,» DeSmog's Sharon Kelly wrote.

In addition, Citigroup has argued that up to $ 100 trillion of fossil fuel revenues are at risk — and the businesses linked to them — from the clean energy transition to a low carbon future

While total output from low carbon technologies, such as hydro, wind, solar, biomass, geothermal, and nuclear power, has continued to grow, their share of global primary energy supply has remained relatively constant; fossil fuels have maintained their dominance and carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) has yet to be applied to electricity production at scale.
