One person is irrelevant. Here’s the sentiment, geniuses.
Wyoming professor testifies that innovation will lead to cleaner fossil fuel future
By Peter Zampa | Posted: Thu 4:04 PM, Nov 16, 2017
WASHINGTON (Gray DC) - A University of Wyoming professor made a trip to Capitol Hill to shine some light on research being done at the school. Coming from an energy rich state, Kipp Coddington says fossil fuel research can lead to a greener future.
Professor Kipp Coddington says the University of Wyoming is leading the way in innovation for reducing carbon emissions.
"Fossil fuel usage is going to continue. I believe that technology will continue to play a role," said Coddington.
He says research being done in Laramie shows that alternative uses of coal and capturing carbon are two of many ways to make the U.S. a leader in reducing emissions. He says the innovation is there, but more funding is needed.
"We're very much focused on economic approaches to the implementation of these technologies. But it's going to take sustained federal research dollars," said Coddington.
Senator John Barrasso (R-WY) invited Coddington to testify in front of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. Barrasso says U.S. carbon emissions have been dropping over the last decade because of institutions like UW.
"We have such an abundance of energy in this country, and its American innovation that makes the difference, not burdensome and punishing regulations coming out of Washington," said Barrasso.
Some say regulations help keep innovation on track. Zoe Lipman from BlueGreen Alliance says federal roles should be reviewed, but not eliminated.
"The idea that we could step away from goals and progress and innovation that we're already doing, I think is certainly concerning," said Lipman.
She says it is important that the U.S. stays focused on innovating to reduce carbon footprints, not worrying about the contributions of other countries.
"We need to worry about whether we are the ones out ahead leading on this," said Lipman.
UW's School of Energy Resources was created in 2006 to enhance the university's energy-related education, research and outreach
Guess so...
.15 pps year end. Re: speculation, take the rest of the year off, folks. It’s a wrap.
Did we see this one yet? Some dates/deadlines articulated.

Sorry if this is a repost.
[hashtag] IndiaNeedsCleanCoal has been trending for bit a now. Will this team of two novices decipher it and capitalize on an opportunity? Very unlikely. Hope longs have placed their stocks in their will. Maybe your grandkids will have a shot with this company at the current rate of 'figuring it out', lol! Some company...
Someone knows what they're talking about here. Great contribution!
Seems like just enough to keep the two man team warm and fed throughout the winter months.
Good points, but I think they're way too optimistic. This company has a long history of can kicking and missing deadlines. And simply disappointing. I think even with unlikely good news, the company's recent (and not so recent) history will hinder any substantive interest, as it should. I'd love to be wrong, though.
Do they even have lawyers? Not sue if they can afford that... If they do, I'm surprised given the amount of typos and such in the filings. Hmm, comforting huh? Lol
Time to exit maybe?
It's trending in that direction.
Excellent commentary from another message board regarding CCTC and it's stock:
Being a financial consultant, a new neighbor recently touted this stock to me. This company and their product makes no sense. U.S. energy policy and environmental reg's have nicked coal industry but that's not the real story of why the coal industry and the use of coal for power generation are both in a death spiral. (1) Natural gas is a cheaper feed stock than coal. (2) While it's still a "dirty" fuel it produces half the CO2 a coal-fired power plant produces. (3) The cost of a CCGT plant is 40% to 55% less than a comparable coal-fired power plant and, (4) it can be built in half the time. Thanks to fracking, the U.S. has an abundance of gas reserves that will last well into the future - making for a stable commodity price. So my question is why would anybody invest in any company whose future well being is chained to a dying market. It's too late for my neighbor - his stock is so far underwater that it will never resurface to see the light of day. For me, I think I'll look for an investment that actually has an upside profit potential. While these posts are usually populated by investors, I thought it best to let you know that my post was made at the behest of my neighbor.
That's sweet. Sensitivity.
If the company is willing to put in the time and effort to throw its name it the hat (which it should) that'd be great. But, I can't help but think about the salaries the leadership duo takes. The award ceiling amount here really puts it into perspective. That needs to change (they need to take lower salaries) until they can yield results/profit (or at least significant revenue).
Only way forward here is capitalizing on future, short-term volatility, imo. This isn't a long play if you're in tune with the reality of the situation, which is...this company's management blew it. And not just once. Pegging their success to politics has keep those with deep losses hopeful, but it's not sustainable.
I wonder how many more times this company has to offer seemingly misleading PR announcements before someone hits them with litigation. Is it even possible with a penny stock? But, realistically, if no one has made a fuss within the last couple of years, this company probably has it made. Management continues to get PAID simply for trying...opposed to presenting results. No one to hold them accountable...
Will we see a dime soon? Me thinks so. This thing is lame, definitely.
So you honestly think these folks will build and/or "commence" anything on time? Have they ever?? They can't even file paperwork on time. It's safe to say it's unlikely that they'll make any real progress this year (it's July already), IMO. The best thing that could happen is someone with deep pockets buy them out. BC it's seems to me (and probably "the market") that they have no idea what they're doing. And it's embarrassing really.
They should be leading in this space. Not fumbling around trying to figure it out as they go. Do they even have a business plan? Or just throw tihs (reverse) and hope it sticks?
I second that. Profit from where exactly?
Absolutely agree!
Pure trash
More disappointment? Say it ain't so.
Right on brother. Same ol' song coming right up. Only those rooted in reality see it as it is.
Unlikely it'll get there this year, IMO.
Agree. Very well said.
Overly optimistic
This week's political announcements should taper some of the wide base of speculation on this board. We shall see..
Why would he mention this on Monday? What indication do you have that that's even a possibility?
I'll check back in a couple of years.
Who else is in this space? Anyone? GE? I'd like to invest, but in a more reliable, credible entity.
I agree 100%
For those of you who have stayed (long) in this stock...why? Do you really think this company can pull this off considering its history? It baffles me. Seems a bit emotional, opposed to practical. Unless you're in red. Then, I get it. Trying to win back your 401k money you invested...
Toast coming right up!
Don't you think WNEC is a collective group of investors who want a cut and some decision-making authority? Formed for that purpose. As in "hey, CCTI, your past indicates you don't know what the hell you're doing - let us help guide you, for just a "small" cut.
Wonder if this penny stock uplist as the company's CEO continues to mention...? I can't imagine the current management would do well under the increased pressure/accountability required by the SEC.
This is bullslop. "Rapidly" is a mischaracterization.
You all waited so long for this bs company to say something, and look it did! What changed though? Not much. Let your pipe dream (and losses) gooo!
