ESAI Power closely follows developments at the federal, regional and state levels that impact the emissions markets. At the federal level, ESAI Power reports on changes to existing regulations (i.e., the Mercury and Air Toxics Rule) as well as analyzing the potential impacts of new and proposed regulations. In addition, ESAI provides price projections for SO₂ and NO_x (annual and seasonal) allowances.

At the regional level, ESAI Power provides coverage of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI). Specifically, a 10-year allowance price forecast and CO₂ emissions projections through 2031. ESAI Power also monitors changes to the RGGI program stemming from periodic scheduled program reviews. In the past, changes have included downward revisions to the annual cap and the establishment of the Cost Containment Reserve (CCR) and Emissions Containment Reserve (ECR) that are intended to either increase or decrease the number of allowances in circulation depending on whether allowance prices either exceed or fall below-established price levels.

At the state level, ESAI provides coverage on state-specific initiatives such as the Massachusetts CO₂ Cap regulation.
