27 April 2021 US media outlet Axios is reporting that a broad and powerful coalition of environmental groups will be ramping up pressure on US President Joe Biden to implement an effective policy mechanism to realise a rapid shift in America’s electric grid. The Biden administration went to the recent election with an ambition to achieve 100% carbon free power by 2035, but has so far not begun the process of creating legislative instruments to realise this change. The ambition aligns with the Biden administrations intention to achieve net zero emissions by 2050, and the recently announced interim 2030 target of 50% to 52% by 2030. A recent analysis from the University of Maryland showed that emissions reductions in the US electricity sector will provide the vast majority of reductions prior to 2030, to achieve a 51% emissions reductions target, from 2005 levels. Of all sectors in the US economy, greenhouse gas reductions in the electricity sector would provide 28% of the 51%, with 11% from transport and 5% from industry and buildings carbon emissions.
