[QUOTE="sweeney, post: 297616, member: 453"] Even before the gov't mandates from the obama administration/epa that nearly doubled in some cases the price per MW that it costs coal plants to produce power the plants around here were all on the cleaner sides vs. the rest of the world due to their scrubbers and bag houses and other types of particulate catching/limiting devices, If i remember right NOX SOX mercury and co2 were the main emissions worried about among the water vapor going out the stacks and they were measured in often fractions of parts per million or billion. Alot of the new emmision standards reduced those numbers even more, but they came at a cost to the coal plants although some of that cost was subsidized it did raise certain plants from 20 some cents a MW to nearly 40 odd cents. which was obviously part of the green plan to show that wind could compete on a price per MW basis.
