Description (excerpt):
To encourage early development of certain categories of renewable energy (RE) and energy efficiency (EE) projects before the Clean Power Plan (CPP) takes effect, EPA has proposed a Clean Energy Incentive Program (CEIP). The CEIP is a voluntary program that states may include in their plans, and is designed to encourage early deployment of zero-emitting renewable energy projects implemented in all communities, and both EE and RE projects implemented in low-income communities. EPA released a Proposed Rule on the CEIP Design Details on June 16, 2016, and published it in the Federal Register on June 30, 2016. This Proposed Rule comes as a response to the states that requested additional detail on the design of the CEIP from the EPA. The CEIP Design Details Proposed Rules further clarify the definition, structure and implementation of the CEIP program and is open for comments through November 1, 2016.
