The State of Washington has recently launched a new "cap-and-invest" program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change.The program is similar to those implemented in California and the Northeast United States. It sets a cap on the total amount of carbon emissions that can be released by covered entities, such as power plants, industrial facilities, fuel suppliers, natural gas and electric utilities, waste-to-energy facilities (starting in 2027), and railroads (starting in 2031). These entities are then required to purchase allowances equal to their covered greenhouse gas emissions. | |
 | The program is administered by the Department of Ecology — they are responsible for setting the cap, issuing allowances, and enforcing compliance.The proceeds from the sale of allowances will be invested in clean energy and energy efficiency programs to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions. |
