Technology and Policy Options for Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Client:
- State and Territory Air Pollution Program Administrators (STAPPA)
- Association of Local Air Pollution Control Officials (ALAPCO)
Synapse worked with MJBradley and Associates for STAPPA and ALAPCO - the two national associations of air pollution control officials in the 55 states and territories and over 165 major metropolitan areas - to develop a comprehensive document on greenhouse gas mitigation options. Synapse analyzed the cost and emissions reductions from technology options available in the electric generating sector, including combined heat and power production, combined-cycle generation, co-firing and atmospheric fluidized bed combustion, integrated gasification combined cycle, fuel cells, carbon dispatch, and renewables. Project completed in 1999.
