In 2010, the electric sector was responsible for ** percent of sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions in the United States. By 2020, the electric sectors share of SO2 emissions had fallen to ** percent. The electric sectors share of U.S. CO2 emissions has reduced over the past decade, falling from ** percent in 2020 to ** percent in 2019.
