Key Points Contained in Climate and Energy Bill Passed by U.S. House of Representatives

June 29, 2009

House Narrowly OKs Sweeping Climate Change Bill | www.dallasnews.com

    The U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009 (“ACES”) on June 26, 2009.  The discussion below contains the key points in the Bill now headed to the Senate for debate and action.

Take-Or-Pay Coal Contracts

April 27, 2009

Coal Prices Crumble | www.forbes.com

    Both steam and metallurgical coal demand are down.  United States steam coal (for electricity generation) is down due to the economic slump affecting industrial demand and switching to cheaper natural gas-fired electricity generation in some areas of the nation.  Metallurgical coal demand is down due to the crushing drop in steel production domestically and globally.                    Although coal demand is down significantly, it does not necessarily allow coal under contract to be excused for purchase.

Draft Climate Bill

April 27, 2009

Administration Stops Short of Endorsing Climate Bill | www.nytimes.com

    House Democrats issued a draft climate bill titled “The American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009” on March 31, 2009 which proposes to reduce CO2 emissions and require the development of renewable energy on a nationwide scale.  The section that follows highlights important provisions contained in this 648 page draft bill.

Potential New Emissions Rules: Effect on Electricity Generation

April 27, 2009

Central New York Rep. John McHugh Takes Aim at Acid Rain | www.syracuse.com

    Some in Congress are using the debate in Washington, DC on carbon tax to also include additional limits on mercury, nitrous oxide (NOx), and sulfur dioxide emissions (SO2) from coal plants.  Many proposals have been floated in Congress (one of which is linked here) to limit these emissions.  If any of these proposals were to pass and become law, it will have significant impact on electricity generation.

Burn Likely to Continue to Be Down for Several Months

April 27, 2009

Genscape Coal Burn Falls 2 Percent Below Same Week 2008 | uk.reuters.com
