Epa ニュース

Just as you might have imagined they couldn’t get crazier, consider EPA’s latest plan to force closures of coal and natural gas plants that keep lights on, homes comfortable and businesses open when those friendly breezes and sunbeams aren’t available.

There was a time when the EPA provided vitally important services to clean up and protect America’s air, land, and water from truly toxic substances.

This flies in the face of Section 111 of the Clean Air Act that says the EPA can regulate pollutants from stationary sources through the “best system of emission reduction” that is “adequately demonstrated,” failing to pass either prerequisite. Since CO2 must be stored underground in certain types of geologic formations principally located in the upper Midwest and Gulf Coast, permitting for new CO2 injection wells can take six years, with pipelines needed to transport the gas over long distances requiring even longer.

How ironic when Texas, the nation’s oil and gas capital and leading wind power producer over the past 17 years as of 2022 with more than 26% of U.S. capacity , recently had to tell power plants not to shut down for maintenance to avoid hot weather shortages. AI “data warehouses” which reportedly consumed 17 gigawatts of electricity in 2022, or about 4% of total U.S. power, are projected to double to 35 gigawatts by 2030.
