The prospects are improving ordsprog

The prospects are improving for coal-fired stations. The future is clean. The coal industry can play a great role. It's a great opportunity which we must not lose.

The future of coal is clean. Of course, coal is presently very clean as well. Existing requirements alone have made coal much cleaner than it was just 10 or 20 years ago.

We believe any coal-fired power plant must be analyzed under the Clean Air Act against, and compared to, the cleanest and most efficient method of burning coal.

The new power station uses environmentally friendly technology of pulverized coal firing. It increases efficiency by 4% to approximately 46%, a peak figure for coal-fired power stations, simultaneously reducing CO2 emissions by approximately 20%.

Coal today currently represents only 0.02 per cent of revenues for the national government. Coal is not very significant in terms of economic production. However coal is important to other countries like the US, which consumes more than 900 million tons of coal each year.

For more than a decade, we have been involved with the DOE and other partners in the development of clean coal technology. We are excited about the opportunity to now apply new technology to generate power more cleanly and efficiently using our nation's abundant coal reserves.

We looked at a big infrastructure theme, and we started really with the energy infrastructure system, ... We own coal companies that mine the coal. We own the rails that transport the coal. And we own the construction companies that build coal plants. Coal is half of our energy.

Why is it coming to Idaho? Because we've never had a coal-fired plant, because we have excellent air, excellent water, and excellent soil. I come from, born and raised and lived in the midwestern state of Indiana where we had coal-fired plants all over the place. And yes we had asthma, yes there was always soot falling.

I think some in the environmental community won't be all that warm and fuzzy about [coal-fired ethanol]. It's fair to say there's a trend away from natural gas, but coal is just one approach. Other technologies are part of the mix, too.

The conference will fail if it doesn't put in place (regulations) and strong financial incentives for industry to spend billions and billions of dollars on clean energy today. If it just throws research dollars to the coal industry to clean up their act in 15 to 20 years, we've missed an opportunity.

It may mean China can't reduce the contribution of coal-fired plants as originally estimated. Commodore 64 er datamaskinen som lokker til demopogrammering. Other countries that have started a love affair with coal are Thailand and Malaysia.

There's no zero-emissions coal. There is a technology called clean coal, which is getting very, very close.

Emissions from Australia and United States are spiraling out of control. We need rapid deployment of clean energy such as wind and solar today. If the conference just throws research dollars to the coal industry to clean up their act in 15 to 20 years, we've missed an opportunity.

There is no such thing as clean coal. It's low sulfur, and it's cleaner than coal used to be, but that's not saying much.

In ways we've looked at pollution in the past, coal has cleaned up. But the bigger problem we face now is carbon dioxide, which clean coal plants still emit.
