[48] A Brief History of Federal Energy Regulations — Today, U.S. oil, gas, and coal markets are generally free from price controls and trade restrictions, but Congress still manipulates the energy industry by tax preferences, spending subsidies, and environmental regulations. In 1978 Congress passed the Natural Gas Policy Act, which replaced the FPC with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and phased out control of wellhead natural gas prices by 1985 in a complex compromise of temporary price regulations. The 20th century experience of economic regulation of oil, gas, and coal markets illustrates how federal attempts to control imports, exports, and prices produce perverse and often damaging results. Fortunately, U.S. oil, gas, and coal markets are generally free from price controls, trade restrictions, and direct economic regulation today.

The CSIS Energy Security and Climate Change Program created the Clean Resilient States Initiative to draw lessons from these state-level approaches to emissions reductions, clean economic growth, and energy resilience. To set the stage for the new initiative, this introductory paper discusses how key measures of emissions reductions, clean growth, and energy resilience may shape perceptions about state performance in addressing climate change imperatives. However, there are open questions about the nature of the economic co-benefits that states are pursuing, and whether co-benefits affect support for future climate and energy policies.

[167] State Climate Policy Maps - Center for Climate and Energy ... — A wide range of policies have been adopted at the state and regional levels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, develop clean energy resources, promote alternative fuel vehicles, and promote more energy-efficient buildings and appliances, among other things. Although climate change ultimately requires an effective national and international response, the actions taken by states and regions play a vital role by developing and testing innovative solutions, delivering near-term emission reductions, and laying the groundwork for broader action. Many other state policies not directly linked to greenhouse gas targets also help reduce emissions. Climate action plans generally include greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets and detail actions the state can take to help meet those goals. A wide range of state policies help to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the power sector.

[203] Will the International Energy Agency Keep Boosting Clean Energy? — Fifty years after its founding, the International Energy Agency (IEA) is now a focus of debate in the United States over whether it should be trying to change the world’s energy mix. Since 2015, the IEA has carved out a role supporting the global clean energy transition, which would slow and ultimately halt climate change. The 2015 Paris climate agreement prompted the IEA’s governing board to expand the agency’s mandate to embrace “energy security beyond oil,” engage with major emerging economies, and focus on clean energy technologies. These moves, in the context of the IEA’s expanded mandate, infuriated other critics, who believe the agency’s new modeling framework systematically understates future demand for oil and gas, threatening energy security and undermining oil and gas investments.

Our third and most recent survey shows that companies have made significant progress on measures that have been on their agenda since the start of the crisis, and that work has helped them weather supply chain challenges such as geopolitical disruption and the worldwide shortage of semiconductors. For example, over the past year, many companies have made structural changes to their supply networks by implementing dual or multiple sourcing strategies for critical materials and moving from global to regional networks. And as companies shift their focus from visibility to improvements in demand and supply planning, supply chain digitization efforts are also entering a new phase.

It was adopted by 196 Parties at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris, France, on 12 December 2015. Its overarching goal is to hold “the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels” and pursue efforts “to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.” However, in recent years, world leaders have stressed the need to limit global warming to 1.5°C by the end of this century. The Paris Agreement is a landmark in the multilateral climate change process because, for the first time, a binding agreement brings all nations together to combat climate change and adapt to its effects. The Paris Agreement works on a five-year cycle of increasingly ambitious climate action -- or, ratcheting up -- carried out by countries.
