Indian Point has supplied
Recently released Energy Information Administration data show that the Appalachian Basin’s prolific natural gas production – and the resulting switch to the fuel for electricity generation – is creating tremendous climate benefits. Pennsylvania and Ohio held down the No. 1 and 3 spots for highest absolute decline of energy-related CO2 emissions from 1990 to 2018,
