The suite of rules announced today includes limits on carbon emissions, tightening regulations on mercury releases, addressing coal ash waste, and contaminants in water. These rules are primarily aimed at coal plants and may hasten the industry's decline.
Releasing all rules simultaneously is for more cost-effective compliance. Carbon emission regulations will impact other pollutants, and vice versa. The new rules require power plants to switch to non-fossil fuels like green hydrogen or capture their carbon.
