PERRY PLUGS U.S. CLEAN ENERGY TECH IN INDIA   <\/h1>\n\n

Energy Secretary Rick Perry and other senior Department of Energy officials trekked to India to argue for the purchasing of U.S.-led clean energy technologies, including carbon capture and advanced nuclear, rather than buying from China and Russia. \u201cLook at us, look at what we are offering and then choose us over other countries,\u201d Under Secretary of Energy Mark Menezes told The Economic Times<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.  <\/span> 
\n
\nPerry pledged full support to Westinghouse – which has been helping construct new nuclear reactors at Georgia Power\u2019s Plant Vogtle – as it aims to also build nuclear reactors in India. \u201cNobody in the world makes better reactors than Westinghouse,\u201d Perry told reporters after meeting senior Indian energy officials in New Delhi, according to Reuters<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.  <\/span>
\n
\nPerry at a Senate energy spending subcommittee hearing last week also said the partnership with India should include carbon capture technologies. <\/span>

AND INDIA IS SERIOUS ABOUT EXPLORING CARBON CAPTURE <\/h1>\n\n

ClearPath Founder Jay Faison blogged about meeting with India\u2019s Secretary of Coal Susheel Kumar last fall at the International Energy Agency\u2019s Post Combustion Capture Conference in Birmingham, and left impressed not only with Kumar personally but also that the Indian government is serious about exploring carbon capture technologies. India has threaded clean energy throughout its 2035 Technology Vision but also isn’t hesitating to expand its coal-fired power. <\/span><\/p>\n\n

PORTMAN-MCCASKILL LOOK TO SPEED UP HYDRO PROJECTS<\/h1>\n\n

Sens. Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) have introduced the Promoting Hydropower Development & Jobs Act (S. 2655<\/span><\/strong><\/a>)<\/span>, which would streamline environmental reviews for qualifying non-powered dam projects. The bill would require a decision on a license within two years and require FERC, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Department of Interior to develop a list of existing non-powered federal dams that have the greatest potential for non-federal hydropower development.
\n
\nThe bill is a companion to one the House approved in December<\/span><\/strong><\/a> from Rep. Larry Bucshon (R-Ind.). <\/span>The Department of Energy estimates the U.S. non-powered dam power generation potential is equivalent to roughly two dozen large coal power plants.

NEWS NUGGETS<\/h1>\n\n

Closing four nuclear plants in Pennsylvania and Ohio will raise electric bills by hundreds of millions of dollars and risks thousands of jobs, according to a new Brattle Group report. <\/span>Shutting down these reactors will amount to losing more power than is generated by solar and wind combined in the PJM grid. Specifically, the closures would increase annual CO2 emissions by more than 20 million metric tons, increase annual electricity costs by as much as $400 million annual for Ohio consumers and $285 million for Pennsylvanians, puts more than 3,000 direct jobs and thousands of secondary jobs at risk and would eliminate tens of millions of dollars in local tax revenues, according to the report. READ THE REPORT<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span>
\n 
\nThe House and Commerce Energy Subcommittee approved a bill (H.R. 4606<\/span><\/strong><\/a>) <\/span>from Rep. Bill Johnson (R-Ohio) that would allow expedited approval of small-scale shipments of liquefied natural gas. The bill now heads to the full committee.
