National, NC groups warn EPA that dirty electricity isn't renewable fuel


Washington, D.C.  Over 75 climate and social justice groups sent a letter today to the EPA, calling on Administrator Regan to prevent electricity from wood biomass, factory farm gas, and landfill gas from qualifying under the Renewable Fuel Standard. The signers include numerous grassroots organizations from North Carolina, where now Administrator Regan served as head of the state Department of Environmental Quality from 2017 to 2021.
The letter comes following renewed lobbying pressure from factory farm gas and wood biomass interests to allow electricity from these sources to generate compliance credits, or e-RINs, under the cellulosic mandate of the Renewable Fuel Standard. The groups argue that incentivizing these dirty industries through the Renewable Fuel Standard is incompatible with President Biden’s commitment to center Environmental Justice in climate policy. ....

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27 The Environmental Working Group issued the following news release:

On Jan. 29, the commission will hold its first virtual hearing to hear testimony from an array of experts and advocates who have worked for years to hold the nation s largest investor-owned utility accountable. ....

GOLDSBORO, N.C. It s 6 miles as the crow flies from the childhood home of Michael Regan to the shuttered coal plant that helped light up this city of 35,000 people.
During the 1980s, the plant s three coal-fired generators were industrial monoliths on the edge of town, pulsing out nearly 400 megawatts of electric power to Wayne County and east-central North Carolina.
It was also when Regan, the first Black man nominated to lead EPA, had his first asthma attacks, a condition triggered by heat, allergens and air pollution. ....
