Cap and trade natural gas
The Cap and Trade Program covers the power and industrial sectors starting in 2013 and will expand to cover natural gas and transportation fuels in 2015 (see here for a helpful timeline). Once fully in effect, the program will cover roughly 85% of California’s GHG emissions. Pursuant to Cap-and-Trade Regulation section 95894, facilities that generate electricity and/or thermal output under legacy contracts may apply to CARB for transition assistance for the greenhouse gas emissions related to these contracts. These facilities are known as legacy contract generators. Conserving natural gas will help manage the extra cost on your bill. Cap and trade will cost, on average, about $6-7 per month on typical residential customers’ natural gas bills, based on the interim rates set for each utility. The exact monthly costs will depend on how much natural gas a customer uses. Cap and trade taxes will drive up the cost of natural gas because companies would use it as a substitute for coal in electricity production, which means increased electricity costs for industry and the individual. The primary goal of the Cap and Trade bill is to limit carbon dioxide emissions, a greenhouse gas which is thought to cause global warming. Whether or not global warming (or even cooling as seen in the past year) is occuring is not going to be discussed here.

Coverage of Natural Gas Emissions & Flows Under a GHG Cap-and-Trade Program This paper provides an overview of the different point-of-regulation options for covering greenhouse gas emissions from natural gas under a cap-and-trade program.
