EGSA Is a GREEN Association

Because of its influential position in an industry largely comprised of fossil-fuel-powered generators, EGSA has taken a leading position on promoting environmentally friendly technologies and practices.

 

Current Green News

New Regulations for Pre-Tier Stationary Diesel Engines. RICE/NESHAP

The current rule for Internal Combustion (IC) engines is the RICE MACT rule which affects new, reconstructed as well as existing IC engines >500 hp at major sources (finalized in 2004).

The EPA has introduced the Final Rule. Read more about it here.

EGSA's Green Initiatives

Here are a few of the ways EGSA is addressing green technology and opportunities:

  • We have formed a "Green Committee" which has the following mission:

    "The Committee’s purpose is to pursue, learn, share, and educate EGSA members regarding opportunities that exist for member companies in the area of emerging green technologies. These may include alternate fuel types, emissions related initiatives, regulation changes, funding sources and more. In addition, the Committee will provide suggestions for conducting our individual companies and EGSA Conferences in a "green" manner."

    Visit the committee's page now.
  • We periodically release "Green Advisories" to our members regarding specific news or timely information about "green" technology. See the most current advisories at left.
  • We actively recruit speakers at our semi-annual conferences to address environmental issues and opportunities. See a list of our upcoming meetings.
  • We've streamlined event registration by replacing printed brochures, user guides and faxed registration forms with a more efficient, all-electronic format via our new EGSA event registration portal. You're sure to find it informative, easy to use and environmentally friendly!
