Abstract
⺠I examine whether the U.S. electricity sector is moving away from carbon-intensive technological lock-in, and which factors are guiding this transition. ⺠Recent trends suggest that the electricity sector is becoming less carbon-intensive, smaller in scale, and more sustainable in operations. ⺠Complete escape from carbon lock-in, however, is not yet definitive.
