February 16, 2021 The coronavirus pandemic has triggered a decline in global carbon emissions. That’s been clear since the middle of last year, and part of the reason is obvious: lockdowns and economic contraction mean reduced demand for electricity. But a new analysis reveals that there’s also a subtler mechanism at play in the power generation system. The proportion of electricity generated by burning fossil fuels, especially coal, has decreased as a result of the pandemic. “This illustrates the opportunity for fast and strong emissions reductions which are possible in power generation, and the fragile market position of coal power generation, which makes ongoing investments into this technology very risky,” says Christoph Bertram, a senior scientist at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Research in Germany and one of the authors of the new study, which appeared February 8 in ....
Study Explores COVID-19 s Impact on the Energy System and Demand for Electricity COVID-19 has not only caused a temporary drop in global CO 2 emissions, it has also reduced the share of power generated by burning coal - a trend that could in fact outlast the pandemic. This is the key result of a new study by a team of economists based in Potsdam and Berlin that looked at COVID-19 s impact on the energy system and demand for electricity. Their findings show that the pandemic, while putting a terrible toll on people s lives and the economy, has also opened a window of opportunity to make this current trend of decreasing coal use irreversible: Supported by the right climate policy measures, power sector emissions could decline more rapidly than previously thought. ....
