Carbon Monitoring for Action (CARMA) : Center for Global Development : Initiatives: Active

Power generation is the single largest source of greenhouse gas emissions, accounting for about one quarter of emissions worldwide, and is highly concentrated, making it potentially easier to address than more diffuse sources.
