Carbon pricing, whether through trading or taxes, is considered one of the most important policies to reduce emissions. A price on carbon increases the operating costs of high carbon fuels relative to lower-carbon alternatives. This post introduces an index (termed Coal to Clean Carbon Price Index – C3PI) for approximating the carbon price required to leapfrog fossil gas and support an electricity system predominantly supplied by variable renewable energy.

Fuel switch costs in electricity have historically been analysed through coal and fossil gas generation prices.

LG Chem is prepared to invest $4.5 billion over the next 5 years to expand battery capacity in the United States. In a Thursday email, according to Bloomberg Green, LG Chem said it would not only sink $4.5 billion into battery capacity expansion, but it would hire 10,000 workers.

The company hatched the plan over the last year in response to what it says as the growing demand for electric vehicles and President Biden’s ambitious green policies.
