Mark Smith outlines 3 new proposed US legislation that will impact EPA regulations for all US operators. I give you the summary of each bill and what I think will be the impact on operators in the coming months/years:
These include:
- The Clean Energy Innovation and Deployment Act of 2021 establishes that electrical generators implement Zero-Emission Electricity Credit (ZEEC) trading system in 2023.
- H.R. 2801 –The METHANE Act of 2021 designed to reduce methane emissions by 90% by 2030.
- H.R.1492 – Methane Waste Prevention Act of 2021 – introduced by Dianne DeGette (CO) – also designed to reduce methane emissions by 90% by 2030.
