On May 3, 2011, under authority of Clean Air Act (CAA) sections 111 and 112, the EPA proposed both national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants (NESHAP) from coal- and oil-fired electric utility steam generating units (EGUs) and standards of performance for fossil-fuel-fired electric utility, industrial-commercial- institutional, and small industrial-commercial-institutional steam generating units (76 FR 24976). After consideration of public comments, the EPA is finalizing these rules in this action. Pursuant to CAA section 111, the EPA is revising standards of performance in response to a voluntary remand of a final rule. Specifically, we are amending new source performance standards (NSPS) after analysis of the public comments we received. We are also finalizing several mi...

Five of New England's six states (excepting Vermont) restructured their electric industries and initiated the development of competitive retail electric markets in the late 1990s. As much as 45% of state-wide load has been captured by competitive suppliers, virtually all of which is industrial and large commercial load. On Feb 18, 2009, the Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC) approved with modifications the resource assessment and procurement plans that had been submitted by the state's electric distribution companies and reviewed by the Connecticut Energy Advisory Board. The 2007 Energy Act had also directed the DPUC to order decoupling of an electric distribution company's revenues from the company's sales, through rate design changes or a sales adjustment clause or both, at t...

The Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA), as amended, prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including low-voltage dry-type distribution transformers, and directs the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to prescribe standards for various other products and equipment, including other types of distribution transformers. EPCA also requires DOE to determine whether more- stringent, amended standards would be technologically feasible and economically justified, and would save a significant amount of energy. In this notice, DOE proposes amended energy conservation standards for distribution transformers. The notice also announces a public meeting to receive comment on these proposed standards and associa...
