Regulations
One of the key uncertainties in developing CHP is the requirement for a variety of permits and approvals. These requirements cover a wide variety of topics and vary widely by state, fuel type, and project size. These regulatory hurdles can strongly impact a project's end result by either forcing a developer to abandon the project entirely or delaying the implementation process so that the developer loses valuable time and money.

In this section you will learn about existing regulations and pending federal legislation that impacts CHP projects. The information here is believed to be current. Please select from the following topics to continue:
