  • Power Sector Modeling

    Detailed documentation of EPA’s application of the Integrated Planning Model (IPM) to analyze the business-as-usual air emissions projections and incremental impact of policies on the U.S. electric power sector.

  • Electric Power Systems Partnership

    The SF6 Emission Reduction Partnership for Electric Power Systems was a collaborative effort between EPA and the electric power industry to identify, recommend, and implement cost-effective solutions to reduce sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) emissions.

  • Resources on SF6 Alternatives

    Links to the report titled Moving Toward SF6-Free High Voltage Circuit Breakers

  • Best Practices to Reduce SF6 Emissions

    This document highlights best practices and cost-effective methods of reducing SF6 emissions that can be implemented by the electric power industry.

  • eGRID Technical Guide

    This document provides a description of eGRID, including the methodology for developing the Excel spreadsheets for each level of aggregation and the grid gross loss calculation.

  • eGRID2018 Technical Support Document

    This document provides a description of eGRID, including the methodology for developing the Excel spreadsheets for each level of aggregation and the grid gross loss calculation.

  • Power Profiler Methodology

    This document provides Power Profiler terms, calculations, methodology, and data sources.

  • Emissions & Generation Resource Integrated Database (eGRID)

    Data about the electric power generated in the United States. The data includes air emissions for nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide; emissions rates; net generation; resource mix; and and many other attributes.

  • Other Resources

    This page lists eGRID related material and provides links.

  • Code Lookup

    This will enable users to find out what the codes used in eGRID mean much easier.

  • Cross-State Air Pollution

    The Cross-State Air Pollution Rule (CSAPR), requires states to significantly improve air quality by reducing power plant emissions that contribute to ozone and/or fine particle pollution in other states.

  • Power Plants and Neighboring Communities Mapping Tool

    Describes the layers used in the Power Plants and Environmental Justice map

  • Clean Air Power Sector Programs

    Clean Air Power Programs & Data describes regulatory programs such as the Acid Rain Program and the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule to reduce air pollution from the power sector that contributes to human health and environmental issues.

  • Technical Information for Reporting Data

    This page is the landing page for ECMPS.

  • Power Sector Labor Analysis Methodology

    Find on this page a document on methodology for power sector-specific employment analysis

  • Southwest Jefferson County Mining National Priorities List (NPL) Superfund Site, Jefferson County, Missouri – Fact Sheet, June 2023

    EPA Proposes Plan to Address Lead from Groundwater in Private, Domestic Drinking Water Wells Across Jefferson County

  • CHP Resource Center

    The CHP Partnership seeks to reduce air pollution and water usage associated with electric power generation by promoting the use of CHP. The Partnership works to remove policy barriers and to facilitate the development of new projects.

  • CHP Tools

    Download the CHP Emissions Calculator, a tool that calculates the difference between the anticipated carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxide emissions from a CHP system to those of a separate heat and power system.
