Synopsis

To reduce the potential threat of climate change, many scientists and policy makers envision largescale reductions in CO2 emissions.  The goal of reversing the global concentrations of CO2 while satisfying a continued growth in electricity demand presents a huge but vital challenge for the global energy industry.

In order to highlight the possible directions for the US power sector as it addresses this challenge, EPRI has conducted a technical analysis of the potential for significantly reducing CO2 emissions over the next 25-30 years. Called the "Prism" analysis, the study found that significant reductions could be achieved through the aggressive development, demonstration and deployment of a "full portfolio" of technologies, including energy efficiency, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, renewable energy, nuclear energy, and advanced coal plants capturing and storing CO2.

Speaker

Paul C. Meagher is an International Account Executive in EPRI’s Technical Advisory Services Division. His responsibilities focus on the integration of EPRI’s Generation-Sector activities into EPRI’s expanding global client base.
