  1. Update on Clean Coal Technologies and CO2 Capture & Storage For Oregon Public Utility Commission Salem ,OR - June 27, 2007 Neville Holt – EPRI Technical Fellow Advanced Coal Generation Technology

  2. Clean Coal Technologies (CCT) and CO2 Capture and Storage (CCS) - Presentation Outline • Overview – Options for Response to Global Climate concerns • Clean Coal Technology (CCT) Options • EPRI CoalFleet Program • PC Post Combustion Removal – Status, Chilled Ammonia • Oxyfuel – Status, SaskPower, • IGCC – Status, Capture Technology, • Economic Studies DOE, EPRI - New Plants with and without Capture • IGCC/PC EPRI Study adding Capture to new plants designed without Capture • Effect of Capital Cost increases and Carbon (CO2) cost on COE and Strategic selection of power generation technologies • Summary

  3. Regulatory Uncertainty on CO2 Emissions • Kyoto Signatory Countries post 2012. EU – ETS Phase 2. UK . • US proposed Federal legislation - McCain/Lieberman, Bingaman, Sanders/Boxer, Feinstein/Carper, Kerry/Snowe • US Regional Initiatives • Western Regional Climate Action (WA,OR,CA,AZ, and NM). Western Governors Association (WGA) • RGGI – East Coast Regional GHG Initiative (10 NE States) • Powering the Plains (ND,SD,IA,MN,WI, Manitoba) • California: Governor’s Executive Order GHG targets 2010 cut to 2000 (-11%), 2020 cut to 1990 (-30%), 2050 80% below 1990. • New long term base load power or renewal (>5years) commitments shall have CO2 emissions no greater than NGCC (established as <1100 lbs/MWh). • Oregon & Washington have enacted similar legislation • Liability of CO2 injection into geological formations ?

  4. IGCC Energy Storage PHEV Power Company Carbon Management Options

  5. Options for CO2 Response(The Stabilization Wedge & Slices) • Conservation (Yes - but Rest of the World?) • Renewables (Yes - but not enough) • Nuclear (Ultimately Yes – but implies wide Proliferation) • Adaptation (Probably Yes – we always do) • Switch from Coal to Natural Gas (Maybe but not enough NG) • CO2 Capture & Sequestration (CCS) (Maybe but site specific & costly - Liability for the Sequestered CO2?) Notes : US Coal Power Plants emit > 2 billion metric tons of CO2/yr (~36% of US and 8% of World CO2 emissions). 1 billion metric tons/yr = ~25 million bpd of supercritical CO2 Effort Required for CCS Slice-World-wide build or replace 8 GW of Coal Power plants with CCS every year and maintain them until 2054

  6. CO2 Capture in Coal Power Systems

CO2 to Use or Sequestration Fresh Water CO2 Removal e.g., MEA Coal PC Boiler Flue Gas to Stack SCR ESP FGD Air Fly Ash Gypsum/Waste Steam Turbine Pulverized Coal with CO2 Capture (Today) • Amine commercially available (multiple suppliers) • 3 U.S. plants in operation: • MEA, <15 MWe, >90% ΔCO2 • Key requirements: • ~5–6 acres for 600 MW plant • Near-zero SO2 and NO2 • Large reboiler steam (MEA>KS-1>Ammonia) • Many new process options being explored Energy Penalty ~29% CO2 to Cleanup and Compression Cleaned Flue Gas to Atmosphere CO2 Stripper Absorber Tower Flue Gas from Plant CO2 Stripper Reboiler Needs Space, Integration and Energy

  15. E P R I AES Cumberland ~ 10 MW (Report 1012796) Assessment of Post-Combustion Carbon Capture Technology CO2 PC Operating Units w/ CO2 Capture (Today) • Three U.S. small plants in operation today: • Monoethanolamine (MEA) based • CO2 sold as a product or used: • Freezing chickens • Soda pop, baking soda • ~140 $/ton CO2 for food grade • 300 metric tons recovered per day: • ~15 MWe power plant equivalent • Many pilots planned and in development: • 5 MWth Chilled Ammonia Pilot • Many other processes under development Only Demonstrated on a Small Scale to Date

  16. CO2 Capture Retrofits Require a Lot of Space(and very clean flue gas) CO2 capture plant for 500-MW unit occupies 6 acres, i.e. 510 ft x 510 ft

  17. Potential Improvements for Post Combustion CO2 Capture • Alternative equipment arrangements and designs - membrane absorbers (Kvaerner, TNO), membrane regenerator (Kvaerner) • Alternative solvents – Hindered Amine (MHI KS-1), Piperazine addition (promoter) to K2CO3, Other amines (PTRC at U. Regina) • Ammonium Carbonate with CO2 and water forms Ammonium Bicarbonate (EPRI/Alstom). Can be regenerated at pressure. Potential energy savings in regeneration and compression • Adsorption technologies – Amine enriched solids, K, Na and Ca carbonates, Lithium oxide • Cryogenic cooling of flue gas • Recycle flue gas to increase CO2 concentration (perhaps viable for NGCC – need to consider effect of lower oxygen)

  22. CO2 Capture by O2/CO2 Combustion • O2/CO2 Combustion • Small test facilities at Canmet, B&W, Alstom • Potential reuse of existing boiler equipment • Pulverizers, air heaters, etc. • Potential “retrofit kit” • CO2 recycled for temp. control • SO2 removed from purge stream • If higher purity CO2 required • Requires large oxygen plant • Large auxiliary power requirement • Large net output reduction • Make-up power source for Retrofit of existing plant?

  23. Oxyfuel Combustion in a PC Boiler Other potential CO2recycle take-off points Source: Vattenfall (GHGT7 2004)

  24. Current Oxyfuel Development Status • Engineering design studies for commercial scale plants -(Air Products, Air Liquide, Jupiter Oxygen, Alstom, B&W, etc) • Operation of several pilot scale boilers • CANMET (~ 1 MM/Btu/hr) • Babcock and Wilcox (~5 MMBtu/hr). Larger 30 MWth unit in construction • Alstom CFB (2.6-7.4 MMBtu/hr) • A key issue is the removal of other gases (SO2, O2, NOx, HCl, Hg). Is FGD required, at least for high sulfur coals, on either recycle or CO2 product streams? To date there has been no testing of downstream non-condensable gas recovery system • To date no boiler testing at supercritical steam conditions • Vattenfall 30 MWth Oxyfuel demo near Schwarze Pumpe, Germany • SaskPower FEED study for 300 MW net with B&W, Air Liquide • AEP planned study of PC Retrofit with B&W

  31. IGCC Environmental Control • Sulfur is removed (99.5-99.99%) from syngas using commercial gas processing technology. • NOx emissions are controlled by firing temperature modulation in the gas turbine. Possible addition of SCR if needed. • Particulates are removed from the syngas by filters and water wash prior to combustion so emissions are negligible. • Current IGCC designs available with SCR to achieve ~3ppmv each of SOx, NOx. • Mercury >90% removed from the syngas by absorption on activated carbon bed. • Water use is lower than conventional coal (70-80%). • Byproduct slag is vitreous and inert and often salable. • CO2 under pressure takes less energy to remove than from PC flue gas at atmospheric pressure. (Gas volume is <1% of flue gas from same MW size PC).

  32. IGCC Commercial Teams 2004-5 • GE Energy (Gasification and Power block) and Bechtel • ConocoPhillips (E-Gas Gasification) and Fluor • Shell (Gasification and Gas cleanup), Krupp-Uhde and Black & Veatch Additional Candidates: MHI Siemens KBR-Southern Co

  35. IGCC Pre-Investment Options for later addition of CO2 Capture • Standard Provisions • Space for additional equipment, BOP, and site access at later date • Net power capacity, efficiency and cost penalty upon conversion to capture • Moderate Provisions • Additional ASU, Gasification and gas clean-up is needed to fully load the GT’s when Shift is added. • If this oversizing is included in the initial IGCC investment the capacity can be used in the pre-capture phase for supplemental firing or co-production. • This version of “capture ready” would then permit full GT output with Hydrogen (at ISO) when capture is added. Mitigates the cost and efficiency penalty. • However when shift is added considerable AGR modifications will be required • Extensive Provisions • Design with conversion-shift reactors, oversized components, AGR absorber sized for shifted syngas but no CO2 absorber and compressor • No need for major shutdown to complete the conversion to CO2 capture

  41. Plant Construction Costs Escalating

  42. Capital Cost Estimates in Press Announcements and Submissions to PUCs 2006-7 — All Costs Are Way Up!

  43. Recent Duke PUC Submissions April/May 2007 • Cliffside, NC 800 MW SCPC 1.8 B $ + 0.6B$ Financing. Or 2250$/kW + 750$/kW financing = Total 3000$/kW Scaling to 630 MW the cost would be 2417$/kW. If labor/productivity in NC is 0.9 (with MidWest 1.0) this would become ~2520$/kW in the Mid West. • Edwardsport, IN 630 MW IGCC (GE RQ) 1.985B$ including escalation at 4%/year through October 2011. Factor (1.04)4 = 1.17 . Total 3151 $/kW with escalation to 2011 or 2693 $/kW in 2007. • Consistent with Duke’s statement in Edwardsport, IN filing that IGCC is ~10-15% more than SCPC. • It is not completely clear what the costs represent (e.g. what is included or excluded). TPC? TPC + OC? However it is assumed that they are fairly consistent.

  44. Capital Cost Estimates When comparing capital cost estimates, it is important to know what is included and, more importantly, what is not included! • Unfortunately, we do not know what is included in each of the capital cost estimates submitted to the PUCs. However, we believe most are similar to the EPRI Total Capital Requirement (TCR). • EPRI Total Capital Requirement is 16–19% higher than Total Plant Cost • Typical EPRI Owner’s Costs add about 5–7% to TPC • AFUDC adds another 11–12% to TPC • The adder for “other” Owner’s Costs varies widely • Depends on owner and site-specific requirements • Can easily add another 10–15% to TPC

  45. DOE NETL Draft Report “Cost & Performance Comparison of Fossil Energy Power Plants” • IGCC, PC and NGCC designs evaluated a) without capture and b) with Capture. Illinois#6 coal $1.34/MBtu NG 7.46$/MBtu HHV. • GE Radiant Quench, COP E-Gas Full Slurry Quench, Shell Gas Recycle Quench . All based on 2 x GE 7 FB GTs. Designs with capture have additional coal gasification etc to fully load the GTs when firing Hydrogen. Lower net output with capture. NETL presented results for IGCC as an average of the three technologies • PC sub critical (2400/1050/1050) and Supercritical (3500/1100/1100). Designs with post combustion amine scrubbing capture are much larger so that net output is same as designs without capture • NGCC without capture and with post combustion amine scrubbing

  46. But IGCC technologies were not all created equal !! - Particularly for CCS • Moisture is needed in the syngas for shift – and the least expensive way of accomplishing this is direct water quench – not by use of expensive syngas coolers • The DOE study used IGCC configurations with syngas coolers and the previous slide used an average of the three technologies. • Higher pressure (e.g., 800–1000 psig) decreases the cost of CO2 removal and compression through use of a physical absorption system (e.g., Selexol) • DOE ranking with CCS - GE , COP, Shell • GE offers a direct quench (not in DOE study) • Shell is rumored to offer water quench design soon • COP is likely to offer a modified operation for capture to inject more water

  47. Syngas Composition Affects Shift Steam Requirements (Need >3:1 H2O/CO Ratio) and Overall Performance

  48. EPRI CoalFleet Studies New Coal Plants 2006+ • Design Options in the face of Regulatory Uncertainty: – Design without CO2 Capture - Add Capture to Design without Capture - Design with Capture initially • Illinois # 6, Wyoming Sub- bituminous coal (PRB) • Supercritical PC with Amine Scrubbing (Fluor Econamine +). Steam temperatures 565 C (Ill#6) and 593 C (PRB). Single reheat. • IGCC - GE Radiant Quench (RQ) and Total Quench (Q) (Ill#6) - Shell Gas Recycle Quench (Ill #6 & PRB) - ConocoPhillips (COP) E Gas (Ill #6 & PRB)

  49. Basis for EPRI CoalFleet Program 2006 PC & IGCC Estimates - Nth and FOAK (First of a Kind) • Total Plant Costs (TPC) include total field costs, engineering, and contingency. Historically, usually estimated for Nth-of-a-kind plants. • FOAK costs have not typically been included in previously reported estimates. However, in view of the current SOA and rapidly escalating costs, an additional 10% contingency has been added to the IGCC and CO2 capture designs. • Uncertain what the estimates presented to PUCs represent. Total Capital Requirement (TCR), which includes Owners costs and AFUDC is also reported because it is believed to be closer to what is reported to PUCs in project submissions • For PC plants, EPRI has used a TCR/TPC multiplier of 1.16, and estimates are shown as range -5% to +10% • For IGCC plants, EPRI has used a TCR/TPC multiplier of 1.19, and estimates are shown as range -5% to +20% • Most previous studies reported cost of capture at the battery limit. In this report, we have added $10/mt for transportation, monitoring, and storage. So reported costs include CCS. • We recognize that the use of these additional contingencies, multipliers, and ranges for IGCC and CO2 capture is debatable. It is anticipated that they should be reduced as the technologies mature.
