  1. Power Generation Emissions & Control May 9, 2001 Mohsen Nazemi, P.E. Assistant Deputy Executive Officer South Coast Air Quality Management District

  2. Generation Capacity in California by Source

  3. South Coast AQMD Goal/Concerns • Goal- Meet California’s Power Demand and Protect the Air Quality in South Coast Area • Concerns- Increased Use of In-Basin Uncontrolled or Dirty Central Electrical Generation Units- Power Plants Delayed Installation of Air Pollution Equipment and Approached Emission Caps- Impact of Power Plants on RECLAIM and RTC Prices- Increased Use of Diesel-Fired Emergency Back-up Generation Units

  4. Age of Oil & Gas-Fired Plants in California(% of Total)

  5. SCR Installation Plans for South Coast Power Plants

  6. Comparison of Existing Power Generation & NOx Emissions from Controlled vs. Uncontrolled Units in SCAQMD Basis: 100% Capacity 24 hrs/day

  7. Comparison of Power Generation & NOx Emissions from Controlled vs. Uncontrolled Units in SCAQMD After Retrofits Basis: 100% Capacity 24 hrs/day

  8. SCR Installation Plans for Existing Units Under ISO

  9. Initial RECLAIM and Power Plants’ Allocations vs. Power Plants’ NOx Emissions

  10. Comparison of Emissions from Power Generation Units

  11. Accelerate Replacement & Control of Existing Dirty Units Support/Promote Use of Clean New Generation Technologies for New Power Plants and Distributed Generation Support/Promote Environmental Dispatch (Use Cleanest Units first and Dirtiest Units last and only to Avoid Emergencies) Address Power Plant Emissions Impacts on RECLAIM and RTC Prices Minimize Use of Existing Diesel-fired Emergency Back-Up Implement Executive Orders Support/Promote Conservation Efforts Future Steps/Objectives

  12. New Generation Projects in SCAQMD
