In 2016 MEACa wrote a position statement to assert the desirability of emission controls for the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s (BOEM) request for public comments on its proposed rule titled “Air Quality Control, Reporting, and Compliance.” **********A survey of MECA members estimates that there are over 800 stationary diesel engines in the U.S. that currently use DPFs. The vast majority (90%) of these engines are in-use emergency standby engines, with the rest being prime stationary genset engines. Some states with ozone nonattainment areas require DPF’s to be installed on engines as a result of New Source Review (NSR) or Best Available Control Technology (BACT)/Lowest Achievable Emission Rate (LAER) analysis. In those cases, DPFs along with SCR have been required on emergency diesel engines. Furthermore, many states require emergency diesel engines, that are also used in demand response programs for power peak shaving, to install DPF as well as SCR control devices. There are at least five MECA member companies that have experience with the installation of DPF retrofits on emergency standby diesel engines. One MECA member company has had extensive experience with the retrofit of stationary diesel engines in Taiwan. Power outages are frequent in Taiwan, so standby generators used for emergency back-up power are an important part of the country’s infrastructure. DPFs have been successfully installed on these generators. For example, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing installed DPFs on 14 emergency standby generators (2 MW engines) in 2001, which has resulted in a greater than 90 percent reduction in PM.
