The Large Combustion Plant Directive (LCPD, 2001/80/EC) is a European Union directive which requires member states of the European Union to legislatively limit flue gas emissions from combustion plant having thermal capacity of 50 MW or greater. The directive applies to fossil-fuel power stations, and other large thermal plant such as petroleum refineries and steelworks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Large Combustion Plant Directive )〕 The directive specifies emission limits for sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and dust.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Large Combustion Plant Directive )〕 The current directive was issued in October 2001. It replaced the earlier EEC directive on large combustion plants, 88/609/EEC, issued in November 1988.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Large Combustion Plants Directive )〕 Under the terms of the directive, combustion plant built after 1987 must comply with specific emissions limits. From 2007, plant built earlier than that could either opt to comply with the emissions limits, or 'opt out'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Large combustion plant directive )〕 Plant which opted out has been limited to a maximum of 20,000 hours of further operation, and must close completely by the end of 2015. Across Europe, 205 plants have opted out, with Britain having the largest proportion of opted-out plant in terms of total capacity. The Large Combustion Plant Directive will be superseded by the Industrial Emissions Directive on 1 January 2016.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=No Country is an Energy Island: Securing Investment for the EU's Future )〕 ==UK opted-out plant== The nine opted-out generating stations supplying the National Grid are:〔(【引用サイトリンク】quote=On 1st January 2008 there will be 11550 MW of opted out generation. )〕 Opted-out plant exists at four other sites; however, only certain plant at these sites is affected.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://archive.defra.gov.uk/environment/quality/air/airquality/eu-int/eu-directives/lcpd/documents/lcpd-nationalplan-update7.pdf )〕 * Ballylumford power station, * boilers 15 & 16 at Slough Heat & Power Ltd, * boiler 3 at BP's Coryton Refinery, Stanford-le-Hope * an E.ON site at Workington 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Large Combustion Plant Directive」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
