On September 14, it was reported that the US Environmental Protection Agency will officially abolish greenhouse gas emission standards for fossil fuel power plants as soon as the same day, and abolish the relevant requirements during the Biden administration requiring existing and new coal-fired power plants to use emission reduction techniques such as carbon capture and storage. According to reports, the EPA is also planning to propose another rule to repeal the determination that greenhouse gas emissions from power plants pose a threat to public health under the Clean Air Act. The EPA proposed a plan to completely abolish greenhouse gas emission standards for the power industry in 2025. The US electricity sector is the country's largest source of industrial greenhouse gas emissions. The relevant regulations introduced by the Biden administration in 2024 require existing coal power plants to drastically reduce carbon emissions, otherwise they may face shutdown.
