Abstract: With the Biden Administration’s recent announcement of the American Jobs Plan and nationally determined contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement, and as Congress begins to seriously consider legislation to advance clean energy and cut greenhouse gas emissions, RFF researchers have been investigating environmental outcomes under various policy scenarios. In this issue brief, we provide a snapshot from this work—including estimates of energy-related CO2 emissions and cost-effectiveness.
