Two Near-Zero Emission coal plants to be built by Duke Energy

The proposal for building two Duke Energy coal-fueled power plants has recently been approved by Americans For Balanced Energy Choices (ABEC). The two power plants under consideration are—the Cliffside Steam Station (North Carolina) and the Edwardsport Station (Indiana). Advanced technologies are going to be used in both these plants to reduce air emission levels. The plants would also help in generating electricity in North Carolina and Indiana.

Coal is the most abundant, affordable and safe source of power in USA, and the two new power plants would go a long way in proving that, advanced, clean coal technologies can indeed generate enough power for supporting aN economy and population. The power plants would also showcase the prowess and capacity of clean coal techniques to provide sustained superior environmental performance.
