Why do this project? As specified in Schedule C of the Air Quality Regulations (N.S. Reg. 28/2005), NSPI has a regulatory requirement to limit anr ual NOx emissions to 21,365 tonnes starting in 2009. Installation of Low NOx Combustion Firi...
AI summary NSP must comply with NOx emission limits under the Air Quality Regulations. Installing Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems on generating units, including Trenton Unit 6, is the lowest-cost method to achieve reductions. Three prior installations, approved by UARB, have validated the program's effectiveness.
ORIGINAL LOW NO x COMBUSTION FIRING SYSTEMS LINGAN 1 (CI 28867), Pt. Tupper 2 (CI 28865) and Trenton 6 (CI 28866)
AI summary The document references Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems (LNCFS) at three Nova Scotia Power Inc. (NSP) sites: Lingan 1, Pt. Tupper 2, and Trenton 6, each associated with case numbers CI 28867, CI 28865, and CI 28866 respectively. The proceeding involves regulatory oversight of these systems.
1. Why Do This Project? As specified in Schedule C of the Air Quality Regulations (N.S. Reg. 28/2005), NSPI has a regulatory requirement to limit annual NOx emissions to 21,365 tonnes starting in 2009. Installation of Low NOx Combustion Fi...
AI summary NSPI must reduce NOx emissions to 21,365 tonnes annually by 2009 under Schedule C of the Air Quality Regulations. Installing Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems (LNCFS) on three generating units is the lowest-cost solution. This is the third year of a four-year program, with prior LNCFS installations approved by the UARB and nearing completion.
3. Why Do the Project This Way? Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems incorporating low NOx burners and separated overfire air systems have been evaluated as the least cost technology capable of meeting the legislated NOxreduction, effective 2...
AI summary Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems (LNCFS) are identified as the least-cost technology for meeting legislated NOx reduction requirements since 2009. Performance on Lingan Unit 3 confirms their effectiveness, with implementation phased over four years to align with maintenance schedules and refine installation processes.
