US can eliminate coal-fired emissions by 2030 with geo, wind, solar, biomass and CC&S: report

A report in Environmental Science & Technology concludes that the US could eliminate coal-fired electric power CO2 emissions by 2030, using a combination of wind, solar, geothermal, biomass and carbon capture & storage technologies.

The research, from the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, Columbia University Earth Institute, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and 2030 Inc./Architecture 2030, examines the potential for carbon-negative power from a combination of carbon capture and biomass generation using the sequestered CO2.
