영문 초록

This paper aims to analyze current and proposed policies and regulations of the United States government to promote investment in clean energy and reduce emissions in the energy sector. The paper summarizes the current status of the energy portfolio in the United States and analyzes the potential future of clean and renewable energy. Over the last several years, renewable energy has seen a strong growth in the United States while coal use is in decline. Proposed laws and regulations will further continue to lessen the use of coal as a power source. However, coal and natural gas will still be a main power source in the United States. In order to see a sharp decline in emissions, in accordance with recent U.S. government standards submitted to the United Nations, there will need to be further development of policies to specifically limit carbon emissions.
