The Numerator-Denominator Connected (NDC) Expansion for the Coupled-Cluster (CC) method [K. Kowalski, P. Piecuch, J. Chem. Phys. 122 (2005) 074107], is used to construct a new set of stationary conditions for approximate coupled-cluster approaches. Several CC approximations based on models involving singles and doubles (CCSD) as well as singles, doubles, and triples (CCSDT) are developed and discussed in the context of ground-state applications. The resulting locally-renormalized CCSD (LR-CCSD) and CCSDT (LR-CCSDT) equations are shown to regularize the expressions for the cluster amplitudes in the challenging situations that occur when the orbital energy differences approach zero. Affordable schemes for handling the local denominators (all-holes-Jn coupling), that naturally appear in locally renormalized formalisms, are also discussed.
