U.S. EPA Issues First-Ever GHG Permits to New U.S. Power Plants

摘要

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) this month announced that it has now issued its first-ever green-house-gas (GHG) permits for new power plants-the first at Palmdale, Calif., which features both natural gas-fired power as well as supplemental concentrated solar power (CSP). The Palmdale GHG permit was " the first GHG permit issued by EPA for a power plant," EPA press officer Nahal Mogharabi told Hart Energy.
