Dec 21, 2023· Comment submitted by Edison Electric Institute (EEI)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2023-0072-8182

The Edison Electric Institute (EEI) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's or Agency's) supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (Supplemental Notice) for regulating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the power sector under the Clean Air Act (CAA), New Source Performance Standards for Greenhouse Gas Emissions From New, Modified, and Reconstructed Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units; Emission Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Existing Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units; and Repeal of the Affordable Clean Energy Rule (Proposed 111 Rules). 88 Fed. Reg. 80,682 (Nov. 20, 2023). Notably, the Agency is seeking comment on "whether to include mechanisms to address potential reliability issues" with respect to EPA's Proposed 111 Rules. Id. Reliability mechanisms should be included in the Final 111 Rules. These should provide paths to compliance with GHG emissions limitations for units whose operations may be essential for the reliability of the energy grid. EEI's comments outline such paths. EEI members are united in their commitment to get the energy they provide as clean as they can as fast as they can, while keeping reliability and affordability front and center, as always, for the customers and communities they serve. Across the nation, EEI members are leading a clean energy transformation, making significant progress to reduce GHG emissions, while also creating good-paying jobs and an equitable clean energy future. EEI appreciates the opportunity to continue to actively and constructively engage with EPA on the agency's full suite of climate and environmental regulations for power plants.

Dear Administrator Regan: The Edison Electric Institute (EEI) appreciates the opportunity to comment on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's or Agency's) proposed rules for regulating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for the power sector under the Clean Air Act (CAA), New Source Performance Standards for Greenhouse Gas Emissions From New, Modified, and Reconstructed Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units; Emission Guidelines for Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Existing Fossil Fuel-Fired Electric Generating Units; and Repeal of the Affordable Clean Energy Rule (Proposed 111 Rules). 88 Fed. Reg. 33,240 (May 23, 2023). The Proposed 111 Rules would directly regulate GHG emissions from new natural gas-based units while also setting guidelines for the states to address emissions from existing coal- and natural gas-based units. EEI members are united in their commitment to get the energy they provide as clean as they can as fast as they can, while keeping reliability and affordability front and center, as always, for the customers and communities they serve. Across the nation, EEI members are leading a clean energy transformation, making significant progress to reduce GHG emissions, while also creating good-paying jobs and an equitable clean energy future. EEI appreciates the opportunity to continue to actively and constructively engage with EPA on the agency's full suite of climate and environmental regulations for power plants. We look forward to engaging with you and your team on these issues as the Agency works to finalize the Proposed 111 Rules. Please contact Alex Bond at abond@eei.org (202-508-5523) if you have any questions regarding EEI's comments.
