BAC Comments on Non-Energy Benefits

BAC submitted comments to the California Energy Commission in its proceeding to consider non-energy benefits and impacts. BAC’s comments emphasize the need to consider:

  • Short-Lived Climate Pollutant reductions
  • Opportunities for carbon negative emissions
  • Wildfire mitigation
  • Reduction in open burning of forest and agricultural waste
  • Bioenergy emissions compared to burning or land-filling organic waste
  • The need for a diverse energy portfolio, including firm power, to ensure energy reliability and resilience.
