Climate Action Plan Illinois

Overview Illinois’ Climate Action Plan was presented by the Illinois Climate Change Advisory Group and approved by the Governor in 2007 Policy recommendations split into sub-groups: Transportation, Power/Energy, Cap and Trade, and Commercial, Industrial and Agriculture (CIA)

Transportation GHG emissions for automobiles (meet CA standards) Incentives for fuel efficient vehicles Low-carbon fuels standard (based on CA proposal Smart Growth initiatives, expansion of mass transit Fuel Efficiency for all Government vehicles Passenger and freight rail upgrades

Electric CO2 emission standards Small renewable distributed generation: more rules, legislation and incentives Energy efficiency standards for appliances Light-bulb energy standards Energy efficient construction standards Energy conservation and efficiency programs in state facilities 25% renewables by 2025 2% Energy Demand reduction by 2015

Cap and Trade 20% Carbon Offset requirements for new Fossil Fuel generation Cap-and-trade program for power generators and large industrial sources

CIA Encourage forest management and re- forestation Require reductions in other GHGs: N2O, HFCs, PFCs, SF6 Energy efficiency incentives and standards for generators Expand no-till farming Encourage Methane capture Increase traditional recycling diversion rate—stimulate demand for recycled materials Land-use development off-sets
