The U.S. National Science Foundation is investing $6.2 million in 24 exceptional researchers who have been selected as NSF Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) Research Fellows. This prestigious program aims to support early- and mid-career scientists in states that receive lower levels of NSF funding, helping them to establish a strong foundation for or relaunch their research careers.

The EPSCoR Research Fellows (ERF) program offers numerous benefits to fellows, including financial support, mentorship opportunities and access to cutting-edge research facilities. The fellows will receive funding and support from NSF to pursue their research projects and establish strong collaborations at national research facilities. ERF also supports fellows in establishing themselves as leaders in their fields and making valuable contributions to the scientific community.

“EPSCoR is a national program that ensures our federal research dollars reach every corner of our nation, and that the Americans who live in these 25 states and territories have the same opportunities to be part of the STEM workforce, access to world-class facilities and partnerships- all of which unlock breakthroughs that wouldn’t happen otherwise.” said Brian Stone, performing the duties of the NSF director. “By funding Research Fellows, the American taxpayers are directly investing in the next generation of discoveries that create jobs, strengthen local economies, and expand America’s innovation capacity.”

The 24 researchers selected as EPSCoR Research Fellows represent

Per capita energy-related CO2 emissions decreased in every state between 2005 and 2023

In-brief analysis

September 15, 2025

Per capita CO2 emissions from primary energy consumption decreased in every state from 2005 to 2023, according to recently released data in our State Energy Data System. Total energy-related CO2 emissions in the United States fell 20% over that time, and the population grew by 14%, leading to a 30% decrease in per capita CO2 emissions.

CO2 emissions across the country primarily declined because less coal was burned in the electric power sector. Increased electricity generation from natural gas, which releases about half as many CO2 emissions per unit of energy when combusted as coal, and from non-CO2-emitting wind and solar generation offset the decrease in coal generation. Looking ahead, our Short-Term Energy Outlook forecasts a slight 1% increase in U.S. total CO2 emissions in 2025, in part because of more recent
