Our work in cutting-edge technologies includes a first-of-its-kind, coal-fueled, near-zero emissions electric power plant for the FutureGen Industrial Alliance— a public-private group representing the coal and power industry that is partnered with the U.S. Department of Energy.
We are a value-added partner in defining, designing, and implementing operating plant modifications and maintenance programs that reflect both technical proficiency and cost effectiveness. We are fully experienced in the complex range of fuels and integration of support systems that keep power facilities efficient and clean.
