CARBON MANAGEMENT FOR POWER PLANTS 2011

Clarifying Federal And State Legislation On Carbon Emissions For Power Plants And Examining Cutting Edge Technologies & Techniques To Ensure Regulatory Compliance

With uncertainty around government regulation of power plant carbon emissions it is vital operators understand the most cutting-edge carbon capture and storage strategies, technologies and techniques to ensure they can cost-effectively comply with regulation in the future.

The Carbon Management For Power Plants 2011 is the only event where VPs from the utilities themselves will demystify power plant carbon emission regulation, explain how to apply newly commercialized technologies to cost-effectively comply with this regulation.  Key technologies that will be broken down will include CCS, IGCC, underground goal gasification, energy efficiency technologies and retrofitting coal-powered plants.

On Day 1 of the event, SVPs, VPs and Directors from leading global utility companies will open the event by clarifying current and future regulation both at federal and state level for power plant carbon emissions.  Following this they will analyse the global experience in regulating power plant carbon emissions to understand what lessons the USA could learn. They will then analyze partnership opportunities between power plant operators, suppliers, financial institutions and government bodies and the financial risk if they do not comply with regulation. Furthermore, they will examine opportunities in the carbon offset market and evaluate the current status of the carbon market in the US. Finally, best practice strategies for integrating carbon accounting and reporting into core business planning.

On Day 2, speakers will examine practical processes for retrofitting existing coal plants and energy efficiency gains in power plants to reduce carbon emissions. The latest advances and most cutting-edge carbon capture and storage technologies from a real world standpoint will be evaluated for commercial application to reduce power plant carbon emissions. Finally, they will evaluate the process of underground coal gasification in combination with carbon capture and storage.

The event will be the year’s only opportunity, focused specially on the utility industry being the biggest contributor to carbon emission across all industries where you can hear the from the leading operators themselves on what strategies and processes they are deploying to ensure they meet regulatory compliance in an uncertain regulatory market.

WHY ATTEND

With uncertainty around government regulation of power plant carbon emissions it is vital for power plant operators to…


…understand how to adapt to tightening regulatory frameworks around carbon emissions for power plants.

Because of this, Carbon Management Power Plants 2011 will bring together SVPs, VPs and Directors from leading utility operators around the world to address regulatory uncertainty around carbon emissions and explain how to apply newly commercialized technologies including CCS technologies.

It will be the only event where VPs from the utilities themselves explain how they are adapting to the emerging regulatory landscape around carbon emissions and provide practical, commercially focused solutions for complying.

Leading utility companies at the event will be providing the following solutions:

REGULATION FOCUS:
Hear how EPA regulation on current and future regulatory framework in the US and the rest of the world specific to carbon emissions for power plants and understand what the risk will be for companies who do not comply

PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES:
Identifying opportunities for power plant operators and other companies to form partnerships in making the initial investment in carbon reduction technologies and understand the risks involved if operators fail to meet forthcoming regulation

CARBON CAPTURE TECHNOLOGIES:
Hear case studies evaluating cutting edge technologies in real life power plants and using this information to determine the commercial viability of using CCS to comply with regulatory demands and provide a realistic projection of when these technologies will be commercially viable

IGCC TECHNOLOGIES:
Understanding the latest IGCC technologies and the associated costs to determine a timeframe for commercialization and their ability to meet carbon emission standards

OXY-COMBUSTION TECHNOLOGIES:
Presenting the most up-to-date findings on oxy-combustion technologies to determine if it is technically feasible and cost competitive

STORAGE TECHNOLOGIES:
Assessing the technical feasibility of storing carbon underground and the safety issues and pending liabilities surrounding it

UNDERGROUND COAL GASIFICATION:
Evaluating UCG in combination with CCS to determine how effective it is to meet carbon emissions from power plants

RETROFITTING COAL BASED POWER PLANTS:
Assessing the cost drivers of implementing technology in an existing coal plant and examining the potential scale up and associated costs

ENERGY EFFICIENCY IN POWER PLANTS:
Hear case studies on how operation, maintenance and design of a power plant can impact energy efficiency

CARBON OFFSETS & STATUS OF CARBON MARKETS IN US:
Evaluating opportunities and strategies in the carbon offset market and understanding the current status of carbon markets in the US

CARBON MONITORING & ACCOUNTING:
Develop best practice strategies for accounting and reporting carbon accurately to ensure compliance with regulation
