In case you missed it: U.S. carbon offsets by project type in 2026.

4% carbon capture. 12 projects. Utilities need a broader playbook.

Only 10 of 46 U.S. IOUs include all Scope 1, 2, and 3 in their net-zero targets. The accountability gap is a grid flexibility gap.

We're bringing this data to @ResetConnect London.

#LondonClimateWeek #NPUC

[National Public Utilities Council @_NPUC]

91% of U.S. carbon credits come from 4 project types. Carbon capture is not one of them.

U.S. utility emissions intensity dropped 7%+ since our last report. But 58% of IOU generation is still fossil fuel. Progress is real. Accountability isn't keeping pace.

573M carbon credits. 7 project types. Carbon capture: 4%.

The offset market and net-zero goals are not aligned yet.

In case you missed it: we mapped which states are most prepared for power demand surges.

Florida leads with 3,003 MW. Rhode Island and Wyoming report zero capacity. The gap is growing.

91% vs. 24%. Nuclear vs. solar.

Capacity factor shows which sources utilities can count on around the clock. See the full ranking.

Florida leads all states with 3,003 MW in potential peak demand savings.

#DemandResponse programs give utilities a critical tool to manage grid stress as electricity demand grows from AI, data centers, and extreme weather.

Florida: 3,003 MW of peak demand savings.
Rhode Island: 0 MW.

Not every state is equally prepared for grid stress. Full map 👇
