Still a long way from a coal plant

Things are less certain for those on the other side of the handshake — Hays-based Sunflower Electric Power Corp. and its champions in the Legislature. By personally engineering the agreement for a coal plant the new Democratic governor ended a two-year standoff with the GP-led Legislature and won passage of clean-energy initiatives that newly position Kansas for the wind power boom such as net-metering and a renewable portfolio standard. That achievement stands. But there are reasons to wonder whether the deal will deliver a coal plant. The latest comes from President bama’s Environmental Protection Agency which decided Wednesday that Sunflower’s plans had changed so much it must reapply for a state permit. (Kansas has the authority to issue such permits but the EPA is responsible for ensuring the state complies with the Clean Air Act in the process.
Maynard wastewater plant upgrade

Maynard has been working on a Comprehensive Wastewater Management Plan since 2005. The present:In 2007 Town Meeting voters approved $10 million for the project. In November 2007 Selectmen awarded a $725000 contract to Brown and Caldwell an engineering company to design the renovations. At Town Meeting in May voters amended the 2007 vote and approved $11. 3 million for the project. This week Town Administrator John Curran said the lowest bid came in at $8. 3 million — $1.
$308 Million Designated for Green Power Plant — but Will It Be Built?

The roughly $2 billion project would create up to 1500 construction jobs as many as 100 permanent jobs and enough energy to power more than 150000 homes. Partners behind the project — energy giant BP and mineral company Rio Tinto — have made no decision on whether to build the plant which would not begin operation until late 2014 at the soonest. Until such a decision is made likely late next year or early 2011 the project is undergoing engineering design and other pre-construction work. A spokeswoman for the partnership Hydrogen Energy International said the Department of Energy dollars would be doled out as the power plant reaches various milestones. That should help get the project going she said. “I think the real value in this type of grant is that it’s pre-operation” spokeswoman Tiffany Rau said. If built the plant is expected to generate $5 million in one-time tax revenues and $1 million in annual tax revenues.

administration to low-carbon power generation with carbon capture and storage technology. Both the DE and Hydrogen Energy recognize that this project may become the model for new power-generating facilities throughout the world” said Lewis Gillies chief executive officer of Hydrogen Energy International. Hydrogen Energy just completed the engineering and design for a low-carbon project in Abu Dhabi. Southern California Edison will contribute about $30 million toward the Kern County project. “This federal and state partnership represents a win-win for California and could not have happened without the leadership of Gov. (Arnold) Schwarzenegger and all five of the CPUC commissioners led by President Michael Peevey” said Jonathan Brigg of Hydrogen Energy International.

ReNvision Biofuels to get Canadian biodiesel plant
Tank Storage magazine
SRS Engineering will provide the complete design and engineering services and the equipment required to build this biodiesel plant. The project will use a number of feedstocks that are available locally including animal fats canola and camelina. The federal government of Canada recently mandated that the renewable fuel content for diesel and heating oil should be at least 2% by the year 2012 creating demand for 500 million litres per year. To promote mandates and to help with costs associated with technologies and market integration the Alberta provincial government has set aside CAN $239 million (?147 million) in funding. This funding has helped companies like ReNvision get started.
