| Description |
| Citing soaring cost and the advances in electricity generation technology in recent years, the U.S. Dept. of Energy has withdrawn its support from the FutureGen Alliance, the nonprofit public-private partnership to demonstrate the world's first near-zero-emissions coal-fired powerplant. To replace FutureGen's three-part focus on coal gasification, hydrogen production and the capture and storage of carbon dioxide, DOE will concentrate on research, development and demonstration of carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), leaving the demonstration of gasification technology to power developers.
