EPA is proposing two limits for fossil fuel-fired utility boilers and IGCC units, depending on the compliance period that best suits the unit. These limits require capture of only a portion of the CO2 from the new unit. These proposed limits are:
1,100 lb CO2/MWh gross over a 12-operating month period or
1,000 – 1,050 lb CO2/MWh gross over a 7-year period
Slide 36
EPA is proposing two standards for natural gas-fired stationary combustion units, depending on size. The proposed limits are based on the performance of modern natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) units. These proposed limits are:
1,000 lb CO2/MWh gross for larger units (> 850 mmBtu/hr)
1,100 lb CO2/MWh gross for smaller units (< 850 mmBtu/hr)
