This report responds to a request from Senators Lieberman and Warner for an analysis of S. 2191, the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2007. One of the key findings is that the electric power sector accounts for the vast majority of the emissions reductions, with new nuclear, renewable, and fossil plants with CCS serving as the key compliance technologies in most cases.
