I suppose that EEE is still in the "feasibility" stages with China Power Investment. I assume that they (China Investment) have already realized feasibility with Peabody hence the ground breaking announcement.



Evergreen and China Powers Investment groups "contract":

This is not an agreement to actually build a plant yet, but it is a noteworthy and detailed agreement involving three phases of work that, if completed successfully, would result in an engineering, procurement and construction contract being awarded for construction of a K-Fuel® plant in China.

The first phase is a feasibility study. The second is a technical services contract with Evergreen, funded by CPI, that looks at environmental, water and land use specifications related to the plant. The third phase involves detailed specifications and engineering design work to meet the specifications of Baiyinhua Coal and Power Company, the CPI subsidiary that actually signed the agreement.


If China Power Investment group ever does build a Kfuel plant it would be a long ways off, assuming feasibility studies and environmental studies etc do not happen overnight. I would guess that by the time any of this happens that other systems such as The Future Gens Alliance will be near completion?
Ans if not near completion than at least they will have an idea as to whether or not their zero emissions design is viable.

So would you think that China will spend millions of dollars to build a Kfuel processing center that would only reduce emissions some or wait for something that will be zero emission's ? I would think that they will look towards the future rather than invest in old KFx technology?
