Cleaner coal

•Converts coal to synthesis gas … cleaned prior to burning•Produces useful by-products•Driving down cost and emissions

– CAPEX approaching pulverized coal– Criteria emissions approaching natural gas

IGCC (Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle)

Nuclear

•Simplified design, increased output, smaller footprint … will reduce CAPEX and OPEX, and shorten construction schedule

•Part of the US Department of Energy 2010 Program, design certification submitted to NRC, selected by NuStart, Entergy & Dominion

•On plan for 2007 Combined Operation License applications
