Note
The House Ways and Means Committee's proposed language will raise energy costs for American households by as much as 7% in 2035, stifle energy technology innovation, increase pollution, and could put significant investment at risk.
Note
We estimate how much energy costs could rise for households and industry if Congress chooses to roll back and repeal key pollution regulations and energy tax credits.
Journal article
In an article published in Science, Rhodium Group and 11 other organizations provide a multi-model comparison of the greenhouse gas emissions impacts of the EPA’s May 2024 standards for regulating greenhouse gases from power plants.
Note
Rolling back executive action on climate could raise average household energy costs, increase dependence on oil and gas imports, drive up GHG emissions, and put substantial levels of private investment at risk.
