Reducing mercury MACT vs cap-and-trade

Article Abstract:

Electric Power Research Institute's (EPRI's) research work on Environmental Protection Agency's mercury regulations viz. Maximum Achievable Control Technology (MACT) and cap-and-trade proposals is presented. The research based on computer simulation concluded that mercury emissions from electric powerplants under either regulations will not lead to increased deposition.
