Delivering sustainable solutions in a more competitive world
The “RGGI” program: Salient features
“Power plant CO2 emissions capped at 121.3 MM. tons through 2014;
reduced by 10% by 2018”
• Data Sources:
Emissions: EPA Clean Air Markets (http://www.epa.gov/airmarkt/) ,
RGGI website, AP-42 factors,
Baseline/Allowance: RGGI published data; model rule
• Key Parameter/Sensitivity:
Allowances (allocation vs auction)
Operational conditions: capacity factors, unit types (Base loading,
Intermediate, & Peaking)
Combustion efficiency
Fuel type and price: type of coals (waste coal, peat, lignite, sub
bituminous, and bituminous); dual fired (natural gas and fuel oil)
