Universal Continuing Decision Process For: EPRI *

 Wheeldon, John     

 

John Wheeldon of EPRI says that in order to keep electricity affordable it will be necessary to keep burning coal and to solve CO2 capture and storage problems. John reviewed the status of post-combustion and oxy-combustion capture technologies and the use of high temperature steam to raise efficiency. EPRI has proposed the UltraGen Initiative with the use of 1400°F supercritical boiler technology.
