Clean Coal Technologies

In its 2008 session, the Wyoming State Legislature appropriated $3.8 million to the Clean Coal Research Account. This money funds the Clean Coal Technologies Research Program, which was created to stimulate research to enhance and improve clean coal technologies, with an emphasis on the use of sub-bituminous coal at high altitudes.

Proposals are solicited from academic institutions and private industry. They will be evaluated competitively based upon their probably benefits to the State of Wyoming through improved use of Wyoming's coal resource. The results of the research will be available for public dissemination.

The Call for Proposals giving details of the program and proposal preparation may be found on the Documents and Resources page. Proposals are due by August 1, 2008.
