Overview
ArcelorMittal Warren is a 20.5 MW gas power plant in Ohio, United States, owned by ArcelorMittal Warren Inc. It supplies energy to industrial operations.
ArcelorMittal Warren is a gas-fired power generation facility located in Ohio, United States. With a capacity of 20.5 MW, it is a small-scale plant within the US power sector, primarily serving the energy needs of its owner, ArcelorMittal Warren Inc. The plant operates under the regulatory framework of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), including the Clean Air Act (CAA) and associated programs such as the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and the Acid Rain Program. As a gas-fired facility, it benefits from lower emissions of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and particulate matter compared to coal plants, though it still contributes to nitrogen oxide (NOx) and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. This facility plays a role in supporting local industrial activity by providing dedicated power generation. Its location in Ohio places it within a region with a mix of industrial and residential areas, and its relatively small capacity means it has a modest environmental footprint compared to larger baseload plants.
Environmental context
The plant's gas-fired technology results in lower CO2, SOx, and NOx emissions per MWh compared to coal, but still contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. Its location in an industrial area may affect local air quality, though the small capacity (20.5 MW) limits its overall impact. The facility operates under US EPA regulations, including emission limits for NOx and CO2.
