| aEstimated reductions are relative to the CCTI reference case which is similar to that in Energy Information Administration, Annual Energy Outlook
2000, DOE/EIA-0383(2000) (Washington, DC, December 1999). bFor the renewable generation tax credits, the change represents the reduction in fossil energy use for electricity generation. cReductions in carbon emissions from electricity are calculated from the estimated emissions of marginal generating plants. Note: Does not include the rooftop solar and biomass tax credits, which have relatively small carbon emissions reductions. | ||||||
