This white paper, which lists control techniques and measures to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the coal-fired electric generating sector, was released by the US Environmental Protection Agency.

The main objective behind releasing this report is to provide information on GHG control technologies and reduction measures.

These measures aim to help various governmental and non-governmental agencies in implementing technologies to reduce GHGs under the Clean Air Act.

The control measures indicated in this white paper focus on the main pollutant of the coal-fired plants, carbon dioxide.
