Tucker Perkins of Richmond conveyed a valuable opinion in a Richmond Times-Dispatch column on April 7, 2023. Please click this link below for a read. All industries in Virginia and the nation are in a rush over the decades ahead to totally decarbonize energy and fuel sources we use today with zero emissions, biofuels and synthetic options.

In his column, Tucker recognizes another ESG, Electricity Supply Gap, as another area of physics to address while also transitioning all energy to lower and zero emissions.
VCC’s executive director Alleyn Harned agrees, “We are going to have to put the pedal to the metal on this.

We commend all for their work on carbon reduction.”
