The Electric Power Research Institute collaborates with its members and stakeholders to address the challenges of maintaining coal as a viable energy option for power generation. These challenges include producing power more efficiently while achieving near-zero emissions, including the challenge to capture and sequester C02.
EPRI’s research in advanced coal generation technologies includes integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC), ultra-supercritical pulverized coal, supercritical circulating fluidized-bed combustion, and oxy-combustion. |

Research focuses on:
-
Thermal, environmental and financial performance
-
Lowering costs and risks through standard design and permitting guidelines
-
Accelerating deployment of new technology
EPRI and its working groups are advancing these technologies to meet near- and long-term performance and environmental requirements for advanced coal generation. |
