Published by Ian Tiseo, Feb 6, 2023
The electric power sector in Texas emitted considerably more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than any other U.S. state's power sector in 2020, at 202.4 million metric tons (MtCO2). Although Texas has had the most polluting electric power industry in the U.S. for a number decades, its emissions have fallen significantly since 2011.

Florida is the second-largest polluter within the U.S. electric power industry, having released 97 MtCO2 in 2020.
