Download or read book Coal Myths And Environmental Realities written by Alvin L. Alm and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with two inconsistent myths that persistently surround industrial use of coal. The first myth is that the Clean Air Act precluded the use of coal; the second, that industrial use of coal will expand rapidly as a result of purely economic choices. Through analyzing fuel-use decisions actually made by industry, Mr. Alm concludes that environmental quality standards have played a minor role in industrial choice of fuel. Historically, natural gas and oil have been both less costly and more convenient fuels for industry to use. Coal gained a substantial economic advantage over oil after the oil price increases of the last decade, yet it continues to maintain a lower market share than economics alone would suggest. Mr. Alm demonstrates that coal's share of the fuel market will continue to remain low because of the way U.S. businesses view fuel-use choices. For most U.S. firms, energy costs are a relatively small portion of total costs and a minor factor in a firm's ability to compete. Faced with alternative capital projects to expand production facilities or to make mandatory investments, companies do not generally give high priority to coal conversion projects. Moreover, most U.S. firms have little experience with burning coal, and that lack of expertise creates additional psychological and institutional barriers to coal's use. Finally, there is a tendency to prefer high-payoff, short-term investments over projects that promise cost savings many years in the future. These are all strong reasons for coal's lackluster performance in the industrial market—much more potent forces than environmental regulations.

Book excerpt: The major purposes of the FUA program are to reduce the importation of petroleum and increase the nation's use of indigenous energy resources; to conserve natural gas and petroleum and minimize their use as primary energy sources; to foster greater use of coal; to encourage the use of synthetic fuels; and to reduce the vulnerability of the US to energy-supply interruptions. Accomplishments in the implementation of the Act by DOE are described along with descriptions of legislation and major regulations, procedures, program effectiveness, and major implementation problems. Recommendations are summarized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the Arab oil embargo of 1973-74, support grew rapidly in the United States to replace imported oil with domestic coal wherever possible. Many believed this would not occur fast enough without formal government programs to promote "fuel-switching"--Switching from oil to coal. The Powerplant and Industrial Fuel Use Act of 1978 (FUA) grew out of this public desire to mandate fuel-switching at the federal level. This report describes the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) efforts during the Carter Administration to fashion a coherent and effective federal fuel-switching program in the FUA rulemakings. These rulemakings were exceptional in many ways, and the lessons that emerged from them should make future rulemaking easier, whether to implement regulation or deregulation. DOE's Economic Regulatory Administration (ERA) ran the rulemakings through its Coal and Alternative Fuels Regulations Division ("Regulations Division"). It was assisted by other offices in ERA, the General Counsel (GC), the Policy and Evaluation Office (PE), and a number of other offices throughout DOE. The FUA rulemakings were conducted as model rulemakings and received special attention from groups concerned with the use of formal analysis to improve regulation. This report uses the FUA rulemakings as a case study with which to examine three fundamental issues of policy implementation in general: (1) How does an agency transform Congressional intent into viable and effective concrete policies?, (2) What role can formal analysis play in designing such policies?, and (3) What budgeting concepts can be used to control and manage the regulatory rulemaking process?
