Co-benefit Research on IGCC Technology Used in the Power Plant

China has mainly power generation capacity of coal-fired power plants. Coal-fired power plants account for about 80% of total power generation capacity in total annually. It will inevitably lead to a large amount of pollutant emissions, therefore, IGCC technology is particularly important to promote. This paper intends to analysize the environmental benefit and economic benefit of the IGCC technology used in the power plant based on the developed methodology. The purpose is to understand the advantages of IGCC technology for energy conservation and emissions reduction in the electric power industry to provide better technical references.
