Scientists at the Purdue Institute are predicting more low electricity rates for homeowners and a coal power cap in Indiana because the state's energy division is struggling with the claims of a changing climate.

Indiana is considered to be the eighth largest gas emitter of greenish housing between States, but because energy demand is changing and coal-fired power plants are seeking the end of their lives, scientists conclude that coal will be replaced by natural gas, wind and solar energy by 2080, according to an estimate of Purdue's impact posted on Tuesday.

According to the report, the climate of the state House has changed, becoming more warm and wettish wettish over the last century. But because the climate impact lasts, winter and spring in the state are expected to be even warmer with more frequent rains, such as summer and autumn being made more dry and naturally hotter.

"It's a possibility for the energy branch to cast a glance at some of the climate configuration results for their energy needs that they will experience in the future," said Jeffrey Dux, co-author of the report and Director of the Purdue climate change Research center. "And to think, is there anything, in fact, that they are obliged or not obliged to create, in order to prepare for this.”

According to the report, the average annual temperatures in the state are expected to increase to 5-6 degrees by 2050 and to 10 degrees by the end of the century.

the change of demand
Scientists are waiting, in fact, that the change of weather criteria affects the use of electricity by people. It is assumed that the actual homeowners will apply less heat in the winter, but more kondyukov in the summer to deal with more warm temperatures.

According to the report, energy consumption in residential areas is likely to decrease by 3.5 percent, because vacuum cleaners consume less heat and more kondyukov.

At the same time, it is assumed that by 2050 the demand for energy for paid companies will grow by about 5 %, because the buildings consume more energy for freezing than for heating.

What is not the least, scientists conclude, in fact that the change in energy demand will own only a small impact on the future of the intricacies of the country's energy supply. This intricacies will be determined by trends in future tariffs for fuel and technology.

Change Of Diet
According to the report, including ignoring the fact that coal-fired power plants continue to emit greenhouse gases, which accelerate climate change, the warming of the weather will have little impact on the projected future energy supply.

Indiana is expected to apply within 65% of coal and 35% of natural gas by 2050.

However, long - term financial trends hope a departure from coal. Scientists are talking, in fact, that by 2058 all the coal-fired power plants in Indiana will reach the end of their lives. Because coal-fired power plants are made older, they are urged to increase operating and maintenance costs-an elementary look at the recent conclusion of the Tennessee plain administration to shut down the coal block at the Paradise Fossil plant surrounded by Mulenberg.

"Coal in the lead is valued outside the market," said Lee Raymond, doctor of political science Purdue and the main Creator of the report. "Natural gas has significantly reduced the cost of coal, and recently repeated informants have become much more profitable. If these trends persist, as indicated by high-quality monitoring, coal will most likely disappear from the energy balance.”

As such, as the coal energy decreases, scientists talk, in fact that the energy will form a natural gas and repeatable energy informants will occupy their space. How much space there is for solar and wind energy, will largely depend on future tariffs for natural gas, scientists say. According to the report, the higher the cost of gas, the more repeatable energy informants will take up their space.
