Greenhouse gas emissions released by coal and natural gas plants when generating electricity to power those air-conditioners would nearly double, from 1.25 billion tons in 2016 to 2.28 billion tons in 2050, the report says.
Is “when generating electricity” an adverb clause? Why can it omit “subject + be” since its subject is plants rather than gas emissions?
Thanks
