Coal-based power: How to handle the transition
Nov 07:
The fact that fresh coal-based capacity creation has to be halted is now a foregone conclusion given the compulsions of climate change.
8A study has shown that the estimated damage to society from air pollution reveals an implicit global subsidy to coal of US$ 2,400 billion in 2015, or US$ 3,100 billion (half of total implicit to all fossil fuels)
8Clearly, this is unsustainable
8Yet a transition away from coal-based power is not possible without widespread pain.
8So how can the transition be made in the smoothest possible way?
8The website carries here a lot of detailed data and analysis on how to handle this change -- both on the policy front and at the level of power companies -- in the best possible way.
