EPA Publishes Proposed Emissions Limits On Carbon Dioxide for New Power Plants

摘要

The Environmental Protection Agency will accept public comment on its proposed greenhouse gas limits for new fossil-fuel fired power plants until June 12, according to a proposed rule being published April 13. EPA's proposed new source performance standards for greenhouse gas emissions would limit new power plants with a generating capacity greater than 25 megawatts to 1,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions per megawatt-hour.
