State-level data on greenhouse gas emissions and sinks: The Inventory of U.S. Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks by State provides state-by-state emission and sinks data consistent with the national greenhouse gas inventory, and with international standards. The state-level GHG Inventory provides a...
EPA claims that the rule will reduce the emission of methane, a greenhouse gas ("GHG"), byalmost 80% between 2024 and 2038by eventually eliminating routine flaring andimposing specific standards for covered equipment, including routine monitoring and repair of leaks. "Super Emitting" Sources A co...
In this rule, EPA took four actions to address emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants. First, it repealed the Affordable Clean Energy ("ACE") Rule, which originated during the Trump administration. Second, it finalized greenhouse gas ("GHG") emission guidelines for existing...
Bloom Energy is pressing California utility regulators to immediately suspend the scheduled Feb. 1 effective date of state air board greenhouse gas standards for stationary fuel-cell generators, arguing that units using natural gas will become noncomplia
GHG emissions come from CO2. Another 10 percent is from methane (CH4), with the remainder from N2O, HFCs, and other less common but potent greenhouse gasses. Offsetting a significant portion of these gross emissions are emission “sinks” from removals from Land Use, Land-Use Change, ...
These alternatives will provide similar coverage of vented and fugitive methane and other GHG emissions in the oil and gas sector, while concurrently taking into account industry burden," the agency said. "Where applicable, EPA will also consider the applicability of engineering estimates, emissions ...
As promising as zero-emission vehicles appear, there are also limitations to consider. “You have to recognize what they do and they don’t do,” Williams said, referring to challenges such as shorter ranges than diesel equipment, and the heavier weights. The added weights that come with batt...
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has released its fourth year of Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program data, detailing greenhouse gas pollution trends and emissions broken down by industrial sector, geographic region and individual facilities. I
The EPA declined to comment on these specific points. Instead, a spokesperson simply sent a statement that read in part: “the Administrator believes the MY 2022-2025 GHG emission standards are not appropriate and, should be revised. EPA, in partnership with NHTSA, will further explore the appr...
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has unveiled new greenhouse gas (GHG) standards for the nation’s power plants, moving to require both
