California GHG emissions standards
Effectively requires the use of CCS at new coal plants by capping emissions at NGCC levels, while exempting captured and sequestered carbon dioxide.
Model NSPS for New Natural Gas Generation
Partial carbon capture in the near term, and 90% carbon capture by the early 2030s.
Model NSPS for New Coal Generation
Full carbon dioxide capture (i.e., 90%), modifying 40 CFR pt. 60 subpt. TTTT tbl. 1 to reflect a 200 lb CO2/MWh gross output.
Existing NSPS for New Coal Generation
Established partial CCS as the Best System of Emissions Reduction for coal.
Utah’s Energy Resource Procurement Act
Provides that 20% of Utah’s adjusted electricity sales should be from qualifying electricity or renewable energy certificates by 2025, including “qualifying carbon sequestration generation.”
Indiana’s RPS-eligible clean power sources
Includes “advanced technologies that reduce regulated air emissions from or increase the efficiency of existing energy production or generating plants that are fueled primarily by coal or gases from coal."
Ohio’s Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard
Names plants using “clean coal technology that includes the design capability to control or prevent the emission of carbon dioxide” as eligible alternative energy sources.
Michigan RPS Advanced Cleaner Energy Sources
Names plants that capture and sequester 85% or more of carbon emissions as eligible “advanced cleaner energy sources.”
Massachusetts Original Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard
Originally named gasification facilities with carbon captures technologies as one of five eligible alternative energy sources under the state’s Alternative Energy Portfolio Standard.
