When
you choose a power supplier, that supplier is responsible for
generating and/or purchasing power that is added to the power grid
in an amount equivalent to your electricity use. Electricity
customers served by Consolidated Edison Solutions, Inc.
(ConEdison Solutions) are supplied by system power purchased
from the PJM Interconnection (PJM), the local regional transmission
organization. ConEdison Solutions does not provide power from
any particular generating facilities; rather, the PJM system power
purchased by ConEdison Solutions consists of electricity from
a variety of power plants that PJM then transmits throughout the
region as needed to meet the requirements of all customers in the
PJM territory (including Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, and
Washington, DC).
ConEdison Solutions will report fuel
sources and emissions data from PJM to its customers twice annually,
allowing customers to compare data among the companies providing
electricity service in the District of Columbia.
The
standardized environmental data provided in this report is for the
period January 1, 2007 through June 30, 2007. |

The
benchmark emission levels that are shown approximate the
emission rate for all electricity generation in the PJM
region. Data used to calculate the emission profile came from:
1) generator owner-entered values, 2) EPA generator-specific
emission factors based on 2004/2005 CEMS data, 3) EPA plant
emission factors from eGRID, or 4) fuel type default
CO2 is
a Ògreenhouse gasÓ which may contribute to global climate
change. SO2 and NOx released into the atmosphere react to form
acid rain. Nitrogen Oxides also react to form ground level
ozone, an unhealthful component of ÒsmogÓ.
