PA DEP Approves Renovo Energy Center in Clinton Cnty, Antis Appeal

Last fall MDN told you that a Marcellus-fired power plant planned for Clinton County, PA called the Renovo Energy Center, had come back to life as an even bigger project that will produce 1,240 megawatts of electricity when it gets built (see Renovo Energy Center Roars Back to Life, Upsized to 1,240 MW). We've just discovered that on April 29, the PA Dept. of Environmental Protection (DEP) approved the project, including an amended air quality permit. Anti-fossil groups, including PennFuture, the Philadelphia-based Clean Air Council, and the so-called Center for Biological Diversity (better named the Center for Leftwing Conformity) have sued to overturn the DEP-issued permit for the plant.
