NY State passes new fossil regs - Coal-fired generation to be 100% gone by 2020. New CO2 limits on the rest.

Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo on May 9 announced that the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation established regulations requiring all the power plants in the state to meet new emission limits for carbon dioxide. No existing coal-fired sources are expected to continue beyond 2020 under the new rule, as emissions control technology needed for compliance will raise capital and operation costs.
