Coal Plant Retirement in Light of New EPA Regulations

By Jeff Archibald, ICF International

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is currently developing a range of new regulations under the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act and Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). These new federal regulations, as they are made final over the next year, are likely to result in substantial capital investments for many coal-fueled generators, and retirement for others. ICF projects that these potential investments could lead to the retirement of 10 to 20 percent of total coal-fueled capacity in the U.S. However, significant uncertainty remains around the timing [...]

Gore is completely wrong when he tells us that the science of climate change is settled. If his “Climate Reality Project” actually did promote climate realism, he would tell us that the science is in a period of negative discovery – the more we learn, the more we realize we do not understand about this, arguably the most complex science ever tackled. Rather than [...]
