The future of coal
March 30th, 2007
An interdisciplinary group at MIT has released a report in mid-March on the future of coal and “evaluates the technologies and costs associated with the generation of electricity from coal along with those associated with the capture and sequestration of the carbon dioxide produced coal-based power generation. Growing electricity demand in the U.S. and in the world will require increases in all generation options (renewables, coal, and nuclear) in addition to increased efficiency and conservation in its use.” The full report is available on the MIT Website.
