Second, the use of dry cooling is not restricted to arid regions. Table 3-2 lists the distribution of U.S. dry cooling units installed and planned by state expressed both as the number of units and as the total generating capacity. Twenty-three states plus Washington, DC, have some amount of dry cooling, including many in the Northeast where rainfall and water supply are, at least on average, plentiful.

In many cases, the decision has been driven by the desire to shorten licensing approval times for proposed plants by removing any water related issues from the discussions. Even in a competitive, deregulated industry shortening the “time to market” may 3-7
