Energy plan orders coal burn for power plants
Washington UPI reports the Federal Energy Administration outlined a plan to force power plants and factories to switch from oil or natural gas to coal to cut foreign oil reliance. The move could raise electricity costs in gas powered regions, while officials say overall fuel costs may drop. House Ways and Means Chairman Al Ullman filed an energy conservation bill adding a 1 cent federal gasoline tax next year and potential increases later, with tax breaks for fuel savings and prohibitions on oil and gas use. Notices have been issued to gas burning plants across several states with hearings set in May and June before EPA approval and eight months until public hearings.
