As US reduces coal use, developer in rural Georgia tries building coal-fired power plant
– canadianbusiness.com
SANDERSVILLE, Ga. – Deep in rural Georgia, a developer is betting he can build one of the last new coal-fired power plants in the United States as the rest of the country moves away from the fuel.
The project, which is being developed by Allied Energy Services, is an outlier. If constructed, Plant Washington would be one of just two planned coal plants in the United States to dodge pending rules from President Barack Obama’s administration severely restricting carbon dioxide emissions. Carbon dioxide is the chief greenhouse gas blamed for global warming.
Still, analysts question whether the estimated $2 billion project, which will be built near Sandersville, Georgia, makes financial sense right now. A booming supply of natural gas has driven gas prices to historic lows, making coal expensive by comparison. Big regional utilities like Southern Co. and the Tennessee Valley Authority are shuttering old coal-fired plants and replacing them with gas-burning units. The only coal plants that could meet the proposed restrictions would have to trap their carbon dioxide emissions, and that technology has proven tremendously expensive…
