Press Articles | The POWER interview: energy experts discuss electrification

Proponents of electrification tout it as a way to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the industrial, transportation, building and other sectors, which account for the majority of emissions both in the U.S. and worldwide.

Electrification is seen as critical to decarbonization of global economies, and also as a way to mitigate the impacts of climate changes. Several executives of companies involved with electrification spoke with POWER about the importance of the move away from fossil fuels in the energy sector, discussing the challenges of electrifying the world, and the impact that will have on individual and business consumers of power.
