Project Overview
In September 2008, the Energy Policy Initiatives Center (EPIC) released a study that estimated the San Diego region’s greenhouse gas emissions and analyzed strategies to reduce regional emissions to 1990 levels by 2020. While a necessary step in the mitigation process, our first report did not provide any specific analysis to help decision makers understand which policy actions could achieve the savings identified nor did it provide any way to prioritize activities and policies. The purpose of this study is to assess policy options based on their potential to reduce greenhouse gases, cost and time to implement, and experience by other jurisdictions.
