Video: Environmental Benefits of Competition in Electricity Markets
From ConservAmerica:
As leaders return from the COP26 summit and Congress grapples with the challenges of trying to pass giant and costly government programs to address climate change, several recent reports show that increasing competition in electricity markets can deliver higher reductions in carbon emissions and increased deployment of clean energy compared to traditional monopoly markets.
On November 23, ConservAmerica hosted an online discussion on the role of competition in electricity markets and the environmental benefits of removing barriers to market entry for independent power producers.
