Global warming and electric power generation: What is the connection?

The greenhouse effect is explained, followed by a discussion of the US fossil fuel use and its contribution of greenhouse gases. US electric utilities' share of CO/sub 2/ and other emissions is quantified, including the effects of using various fuels. The possible recovery and disposal of CO/su...

description The greenhouse effect is explained, followed by a discussion of the US fossil fuel use and its contribution of greenhouse gases. US electric utilities' share of CO/sub 2/ and other emissions is quantified, including the effects of using various fuels. The possible recovery and disposal of CO/sub 2/ from power-plant flue gases is also discussed. The information presented should help prepare electric utilities to address future public concerns and the related regulatory pressures regarding the utility's role in carbon-dioxide proliferation and global warming.< >
