  1. 2009

    Reviews of CCPI-3 applications were completed and projects were selected. Selection and award of Major Demonstration projects significantly expands the opportunities to demonstrate CCS at commercial scale in geologic formation. All $796 million in Recovery Act Funding allocated for CCPI-3 was awarded to four CCPI-3 projects. These projects were awarded to Hydrogen Energy California LLC (HECA) on August 30, 2009, American Electric Power Service Corporation (AEP) and Summit Texas Clean Energy LLC (STCE) on January 20, 2010, and NRG Energy Inc. on May 7, 2010. 57 jobs have been created thus far.

    Goals: Projects demonstrate advanced coal-based technologies that will capture and sequester or put to beneficial use carbon emissions. The selections demonstrate technologies that make progress toward a target CO2 capture efficiency of 90%; make progress toward a capture and sequestration goal of less than 10% increase in the cost of electricity for gasification systems and less than 35% for combustion and oxycombustion systems; and capture and sequester or put to beneficial use an amount of CO2 emissions in excess of the minimum of 300,000 tons per year required by CCPI.
