The report instead suggests the material change of limiting post-2035 natural gas generation emissions intensity to a best available technology standard. the 30 tonne CO2/GWh emissions intensity cap would essentially require natural gas generation post-2035 to rely on successful carbon capture and storage (CCS) operations. The report instead suggests the material change of limiting post-2035 natural gas generation emissions intensity to a best available technology standard. Offsets: while the original draft CER refused to recognize offsets, the report floats allowing a limited extent of offset-based compliance. while the original draft CER refused to recognize offsets, the report floats allowing a limited extent of offset-based compliance.
