Clean coal push marks reversal of UK energy policy
Decision not to allow any new coal-powered plants to be built in Britain without carbon capture represents a major victory for the new Department for Energy and Climate Change and green pressure groups
The pilot carbon capture and storage (CCS) power plant at the first coal-fired plant in the world, Schwarze Pumpe in northern Germany, uses "oxyfuel" technology.
Google Tech Talks October 23, 2008 ABSTRACT Carbon dioxide capture and sequestration (CCS) has emerged as an important part of the portfolio of technologies for lowering emissions of greenhouse g...

Slide Show: What Does Carbon Capture and Storage Look Like?
From the North Sea to Texas, this slide show looks at existing technology to take the carbon dioxide out of coal burning and other fossil fuel use
The CO2 Capture Project
The CO2 Capture Project (CCP) is a partnership of eight of the world’s leading energy companies and three government organsiations undertaking research and developing technologies to help make CO2 capture and geological storage (CCS) a practical reality for reducing global CO2 emissions and tackling climate change.
CO2 Capture and Geological Storage is a technological process to capture CO2 emissions from fossil fuel-fired power plants and other industrial processes and then store the CO2 deep underground in geological formations securely away from the atmosphere.
The CO2 Capture Project website includes information on project partners and activities, an introduction to CO2 capture technology, an extensive publications database featuring technical papers, presentations and reports, and a media and resources page including links to FAQs, non-technical reports, an image library and a glossary of CO2 capture terms.

Coal-Fired Power Plants Will Need Better Carbon Capture and Storage Technology
The economic stimulus package is expected to include billions for research and development of carbon capture and storage
As technological advancements have been realized in the last five years, the United States is eager to demonstrate carbon capture and storage technology on commercial plants that when operational, will be the cleanest coal-fired plants in the world.
