Background p. pp. 14-16
Background By 2009, Nova Scotia Power Inc. (NSPI) nitrogen oxides (NO x ) emissions must be reduced to 20% below Year 2000 levels. This is required by an amendment to the Nova Scotia Environment Act (S.N.S. 1994-1995, c.1) (see Appendix I)...

AI summary Nova Scotia Power Inc. (NSPI) must reduce NOx emissions to 20% below 2000 levels by 2009 under the Environment Act . NSPI's program includes installing Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems (LNCFS) on multiple units, with regulatory approvals from the Utility and Review Board (UARB) for retrofits on Lingan Units 3, 2, 4, and others. The text outlines the timeline and compliance measures.

NOx Reduction Multi-Year Plan p. p. 16
NOx Reduction Multi-Year Plan The table below.summarizes NSPI's NOxReduction Program. The program incorporates low NOxcombustion technology, combined with associated combustion optimization to enable NSPI to meet its NOxcap in 2009. Annual...

AI summary NSPI's NOx Reduction Program uses low NOx combustion technology to meet its NOx cap in 2009. The program has not changed significantly since previous applications to the UARB, and NSPI forecasts that six solid fuel fired units will be needed to meet the 2009 target by a small margin. A decision on a subsequent 2009 installation will be made in 2008.

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 comply with NOx emission limits set by Schedule C of the Air Quality Regulations. Installing Low NOx Combustion Firing Systems (LNCFS) on three generating units is the lowest-cost method to achieve required reductions. This is the third year of a four-year program, with prior UARB-approved installations nearing completion and performance aligning with forecasts.
