A Deep Dive into EPA’s Power Plant GHG Pollution Rule

This program will provide a comprehensive assessment of EPA’s recently released final greenhouse gas emissions limits for power plants, including the rule’s pollution control requirements, available control technologies, climate change benefits, environmental justice impacts, and electric reliability implications, as well as analysis of potential legal challenges to the rule that may be on the horizon. As many are aware, EPA’s attempts at setting greenhouse gas emissions standards for power plants has a storied and complex history spanning several presidential administrations and resulting in arguably one of the most consequential Supreme Court decisions in environmental law, West Virigina v. EPA. Come join our panel of preeminent environmental and energy law experts as they offer their analysis of this latest chapter in EPA’s efforts to rein in power sector greenhouse gas emissions.
