EDF Energy Transition

@EnvDefenseFund's Energy Transition team. Working to bend the curve on global GHG emissions from fossil fuel production and use by 2030, cleanly + equitably.

Diesel trucks emit significant pollution around warehouses. 🚚📦 Nearly 4 million Illinois residents live within half a mile of a warehouse — but regulations to protect public health haven't kept up.

As extreme heat intensifies, we need global climate solutions that deliver results now. Cutting methane is one of the most effective ways to slow near-term warming, & the tools to do it already exist.

High methane loss rates from conventional wells are weighing down the Appalachian energy industry. As energy markets demand cleaner, transparent energy sources, reducing methane waste is becoming critical to the region’s competitiveness.

Utah's proposed oil & gas bond rule is a major step in ensuring operators — not taxpayers — cover the cost of well cleanup.

A new @BreatheUtah op-ed argues the state should finalize the rule while strengthening key provisions to better protect the public. https://t.co/RylXI2QUEM

The world is facing an energy affordability challenge while billions of cubic meters of natural gas are lost through leaks, venting & flaring.

@FredKrupp explains in @WSJ how cutting methane waste can bolster energy security, lower costs & cut pollution: https://t.co/r9YbUBF7tm

No federal or state database tracks facilities that attract, rather than produce, pollution. In Illinois, the Warehouse Pollution Reduction Act can help reduce diesel pollution and protect at-risk neighborhoods.

Grid connection delays drive up project costs and can ultimately raise customer bills. The solution? Better tracking. Greater grid transparency can identify bottlenecks, improve performance, and help get clean energy projects connected faster.⚡More from EDF:

Communities most affected by energy decisions are often the least resourced to participate.

On the Just Power Podcast, EDF's Jolette Westbrook explains why opening the door isn't enough without the resources, support & accountability needed to be heard.🎧 https://t.co/oUzizp4TJB

[Fred Krupp @FredKrupp]

Let's be clear: EDF doesn't categorically oppose new gas pipelines. We support infrastructure that safely delivers energy, cuts pollution, & meets a clear need. What we oppose are rollbacks of commonsense methane standards that let valuable gas leak away. https://t.co/oDyEybllY7

Utah has an opportunity to lead on responsible oil & gas policy.

Modernizing outdated bonding rules can help reduce future liabilities, protect taxpayers and ensure cleanup costs stay with operators — where they belong. https://t.co/6eo5W97ND1

[EDF Energy Transition @EDFEnergyEX]

The technology to reduce methane emissions already exists. In many places, the challenge is financing, infrastructure and implementation.

An open door isn't the same as a seat at the table.

@EnvDefenseFund's Jolette Westbrook joined the Just Power Podcast to discuss community voices in energy decision-making and what real accountability looks like.

Utah's oil & gas bonding rules haven't kept pace with the real cost of cleanup, putting taxpayers at financial risk.

A new op-ed from former UT lawmakers makes the case for modernizing requirements so operators, not the public, cover cleanup costs. https://t.co/6eo5W97ND1
