EFI and
@Ethree_inc are happy to announce our most recent study, Net-Zero New England: Ensuring Electricity Reliability in a Low-Carbon Future.
This report examines
- what’s required to maintain electricity system reliability
![Elektrostecker 🔌](https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/72x72/1f50c.png)
in the context of reducing economy wide emissions to net-zero by mid-century
Why does electricity reliability matter? Here are the facts:
![Elektrische Glühbirne 💡](https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/72x72/1f4a1.png)
electricity is anticipated to contribute a growing
share of energy to transportation & heating, critical
energy services for the particularly cold region
Follow our thread to look at the seven key findings
