Utility to Purchase Electricity from Innovative DOE-Supported Clean Coal Project EnergyBiz
January 17, 2012
An innovative clean coal technology project in Texas will supply electricity to the largest municipally owned utility in the United States under a recently signed Power Purchase Agreement, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has been announced. Modern Coal Mining is Essential for the Future Kentucky Kernel
January 11, 2012
The coal industry has had dark days in the past, tainting public opinion of the industry as a whole, yet many do not realize those days have passed. Regarding safety and environmental stewardship, mining companies have set high standards for themselves, often above and beyond minimum requirements stated in regulations. Coal Interests Press On A part of the new generation of coal, the newest coal-fueled power plant in the nation, Prairie State Energy Campus, is currently under construction in southern Illinois, in Washington County. Indiana Municipal Power Agency has invested on behalf of its owner-members in Prairie State Energy Campus and will be receiving power at the end of 2011.

The Factuality Tour 2009 Hits the Road, Reveals Power of Coal

Here at the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE), we started the Factuality Tour, a multi-stop, cross-country tour and video blog, to tell the true story of coal in America â from mine to plug.

Energy Access for All with Green Coal

The greatest crisis society confronts is not a future environmental crisis predicted by computer models but a human crisis today that is fully within our power to solve.

'Changing the Game' by Recycling CO2

An innovative solution to capture and store carbon dioxide that's being advanced by a Silicon Valley start-up is based on what some might call a simple chemical reaction.

Want to Reindustrialize the United States? Broad Deployment of CCS Is the Ultimate Economic Stimulus

Broad deployment of carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technologies in the next 40 years will increase U.S. Gross Domestic Product by $2.7 trillion, create 28 million job-years over four decades from new construction, and support 800,000 permanent jobs related to operation and maintenance of these facilities, delivering the ultimate economic stimulus for a low-carbon economy.

The Costs of CO2 Capture, Transport and Storage

The companies, scientists, academics and environmental NGOs that together make up the Zero Emissions Platform (ZEP) have undertaken a ground-breaking study into the costs of CO2 Capture, Transport and Storage (CCS). The conclusion: following the European Union’s CCS demonstration programme, CCS will be cost-competitive with other sources of low-carbon power.

U.S. Department of Energy: We Have Hundreds of Years of Carbon Storage Capacity

America is blessed with enough carbon storage capacity to last at least 500 years, according to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The conclusion comes amid broad scientific backing for using carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology as global energy leaders increasingly call for accelerating deployment of the technology.

Coal Hard Facts

IBM Corporation:
When it comes to energy advances, investing time will yield results. The development and application of new energy technology will take time. It took about fifty years from the development of the silicon chip before computers were a widespread part of everyday life.
