CO2 Mitigation Options –
for Coal Based Power
Increase efficiency
Maximize MWs per lb of carbon processed
Fuel switch with biomass
Partial replacement of fossil fuels =
proportional reduction in CO2
Then, and only then ….Capture remaining CO2
for EOR/Sequestration
= Logical path to lowest cost of carbon reduction

Technology Choices Reduce Risk and Lower Costs
Note: Costs include compression , but do not include sequestration – equal for all technologies
36
Conclusions
37
New coal fired power plants shall be designed for highest
efficiency to minimize CO2 and other emissions
Lower cost, higher performance technologies for post
combustion CO2 capture are actively being developed, and
more are emerging
There is no single technology answer to suit all fuels and all
applications
The industry is best served by a portfolio approach to drive
development of competitive coal power with carbon capture
technology
