Abstract
This article analyzes the level of greenhouse gas emissions attributable to electricity from natural-gas-fired power plants and coal-fired power plants, then compares the two. An analytical framework is employed that considers the key greenhouse gases released during the production and combustion of coal and natural gas: carbon dioxide and methane.
