Over the past three years, some of the country’s biggest utilities have been committing to a goal that few may have predicted they’d undertake on their own: weaning themselves off carbon-emitting generation by 2050. Utilities in many states now face mandates to move to 100 percent renewable energy or cut carbon to zero by 2050.

In this scenario, a zero-carbon electricity system would drive wholesale power costs of about $90 per megawatt-hour on average. trillion pathway to a zero-carbon U.S.

But the promise of streamlining the planning process may also offer a much-needed boost for major low carbon energy projects such as nuclear power plants and offshore wind farms. The Committee is urgently examining the government's plans for fossil fuel extraction and maintenance of the UK's energy security.

A sudden collapse of the industry - called a carbon crunch - could lead to economic disaster of epic proportions. The time is therefore now to plan an orderly wind-down of fossil fuel assets and manage the impact on the global economy rather than try to sustain the unsustainable. This may prove to be terminal. Money is gone.

carbon emissions to zero by midcentury will require trillions of dollars of investment and disrupt entire sectors of the economy reliant on fossil fuels. But that doesn’t mean that states most reliant on fossil fuel extraction or industries powered by them must lose out in the transition. Cutting U.S.
