Assessing State Goals and Challenges under EPA’s Clean Power Plan
Event Tabs Default Post-Event
Since the release of EPA’s Clean Power Plan in early June, state policymakers have been assessing how the proposed rule will impact their unique state and regional circumstances. At this seminar, research experts and state regulators will explore several challenges to implementing the rule, including whether rate-based emissions targets should be converted to mass-based targets and, if so, how; whether credit can be or should be given for states that have already taken early action on low-carbon energy programs; and how these challenges might differ by region, among others.
Speakers include:
- Anthony Paul, Center Fellow, Resources for the Future (moderator)
- Vic Niemeyer, Technical Executive, Electric Power Research Institute
- G. Vinson Hellwig, Chief, Air Quality Division, Michigan Department of Environmental Quality
- John Lyons, Assistant Secretary for Climate Policy, Kentucky Energy and Environment Cabinet
- David Cash, Commissioner, Department of Environmental Protection, Commonwealth of Massachusetts
