Gas-fired cooling technologies have a significant economic advantage and they eliminate electric peak demand charges. They also have the advantage that they can provide comfort heating. New equipment that enters the market in the future will need to be designed to operate within the promulgated emission standards. The gas-fired equipment emission requirements of many different agencies at the federal, state and specific area level were identified and reviewed for their applicability to gas-fired cooling technologies. No agency was found to have an emission requirement specifically for gas-fired cooling equipment. However, other source emission standards could, now or in the future, be applied to gas-fired cooling since they use some of the same combustion technologies.
