EPA blocks Colorado’s haze plan, delaying coal plant closures to ensure grid reliability.
The EPA has rejected Colorado’s revised 2022 Regional Haze plan, citing violations of the Clean Air Act and concerns over grid reliability and potential property takings, blocking the nonconsensual closure of coal plants like Nixon Unit 1.
The decision delays retirements of units at Craig and Comanche stations, with the DOE also issuing emergency orders to keep some plants running through March 2026 for winter grid stability.
Colorado officials criticize the move as hindering clean energy progress and increasing costs and pollution.
The state must now revise its plan to comply with federal requirements.
