The Obama administration on Friday set the first national standards for waste generated from coal burned for electricity, treating it more like household garbage rather than a hazardous material. Environmentalists had pushed for the hazardous classification, citing the hundreds of cases nationwide in which coal ash waste had tainted waterways or underground aquifers, in many cases legally. A ...
More Than 10,000 Active Environmental Projects for the World’s 7,000 Coal-fired Power Boilers The combination of a building boom for new coal-fired power plants in Asia plus environmental upgrades in Europe and the Americas has led to a record number of environmental projects in planning and construction. This is the conclusion reached by the McIlvaine Company in Utility Environmental ...
If a combination of coal and biomass provided the energy source for electricity and the CO2 from the combustion was captured, there would be more carbon extracted from the atmosphere than returned to it. The best global warming reducer would be a 100 percent biomass boiler with 90 percent CO2 capture, but there is not enough biomass to generate the electricity the world needs. However, a ...
The State of Georgia is positioned to become a leader in battery energy storage in the Southeast with Georgia Power's planned investment to own and operate 80 megawatts (MW) of battery energy storage. The company's 2019 Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), unanimously approved today by the Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC), includes energy storage, 72 percent more renewable generation by 2024, ...

If Kentucky, for example, meets the new limits that the Obama administration proposed Monday, it would be allowed to release more ...

We are a waste to energy firm in Western North Carolina called RCBC Global Inc. As you know, the EPA has to make a ruling by next Friday about whether or not coal ash is classified as hazardous or non hazardous. Sunday Dec 7th 60 minutes aired Duke Power's CEO Lynne Good about why she has not cleaned up the coal ash spill into the Dan River. I will cut to the chase as to why I am contacting you. ...
Environmentalists and industry experts widely expect the first federal standards for the waste generated from coal burned for electricity to treat the ash like household garbage, rather than a hazardous material. The Obama administration is under court order to unveil the rule Friday, ending a six-year effort that began after a massive spill at a Tennessee power plant in 2008. Since then, the ...
The billion-gallon wave of toxic coal-ash sludge that burst from a power-plant retention pond and buried 300 acres of rural Tennessee hints at a far larger problem: hundreds of similar threats nationwide. More than 1,300 coal-ash waste sites are dotted across the United States, about half of them actively used, federal data show. Some are landfills. The rest are 'surface impoundments' (storage ...
