Description
The UTSR program addresses key technologies needed to enable the development of advanced turbines and turbine-based systems that will operate cleanly and efficiently when fueled with coal-derived synthesis gas and hydrogen fuels. Developing turbine technology to operate on coal-derived synthesis gas and hydrogen is critical to the development of advanced coal based power generation technologies such as integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) and the deployment of IGCC power plants that capture and sequester carbon dioxide. The Advanced Turbine Program is an investment in secure U.S. electric power production that is clean, efficient, affordable, and fuel-flexible, and will make possible the continued use of coal; our Nation's largest domestic fossil energy resource.
