Coal cannot be ruled out as the world comes to grips with the needs of the third world to bring infrastructure to the poorest regions in the world. It is the only way to improve living conditions for millions. However a concerted effort in Europe are developing cleaner power stations.
many off you may have seen this on EDF's web page, but here is the snippet that I like....
.Technology in the making
EDF is continuing its R&D program to further reduce CO2 emissions in its fossil-fired plants. We are studying the development in Europe of the latest generation coal-fired plants (supercritical or ultra supercritical plants), which are more efficient in terms of output and environmental performance. In Germany, for example, construction of EnBWs RDK8 supercritical coal-fired plant has begun in Karlsruhe.
Furthermore, we are continuing our research to optimize technology for capturing and storing CO2 in order to reduce atmospheric emissions or even eliminate them completely. ends.
On another note...
It is bucketting down with rain in QLD today! again!
