DOE Boiler MACT Technical Assistance

On December 20, 2012, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency finalized the Clean Air Act pollution standards, National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants for Major Sources: Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional Boilers and Process HeatersPDF (known as ICI Boiler MACT). This standard applies to large boilers in a wide range of facilities and institutions. DOE will offer technical assistance to ensure that major sources burning coal or oil have information on cost-effective clean energy strategies for compliance, such as natural gas combined heat and power (CHP), and to promote cleaner, more efficient boilers to cut harmful pollution and reduce operational costs. This technical assistance effort is in accordance with the August 2012 Executive Order on accelerating investment in industrial energy efficiency, including CHP. The Northeast Clean Energy Application Center is offering this supplemental Technical Assistance. Contact Beka Kosanovic at the Northeast Clean Energy Application Center for more information.

Webinar on

“Combined Heat & Power as a Boiler MACT Compliance Strategy"

 

On December 20, 2012, the US EPA finalized the Clean Air Act pollution standards known as ICI Boiler MACT. This standard applies to large boilers in a wide range of industrial facilities and institutions. 

 

The DOE Northeast Clean Energy Application Center is hosting this webinar on April 16, 2013 from 10:00-11:00 am EST to inform stakeholders of DOE's Boiler MACT technical assistance program to ensure that major sources burning coal or oil have information on cost-effective clean energy strategies for compliance, such as natural gas-fueled combined heat and power. 

 

On the webinar, Beka Kosanovic, NE-CEAC Director for technical assistance, will provide an overview of the program and discuss CHP as a compliance strategy option.
