Yes, electric power plants can provide better overall control of their emissions but in the end those emissions will have the same effect.

Did I get this right? One of the proposed solutions is to compress and FREEZE the CO2 emissions into ice form and then store then deep underground "forever".

Gotta be one costly project.
"Where have you been, asleep..??" is offensive, and the comments that follow are not pertinent to my post about off peak power.

Pertaining to the comments that followed:

Nuclear energy is not the only solution. Wind and solar power offer green solutions that do not create toxic waste that lasts a thousand years.

...maybe we can bury our nuclear waste and excess carbon dioxide together.
