Coal-Based Power Plants of the Future: The purpose of this Request for Information is to seek information from power generation equipment manufacturers, utilities, power plant architect-engineers, and other stakeholders that can be used as input to a Department of Energy Fossil Energy Research and Development program that will culminate in the design, construction, and operation of a coal-based pilot-scale power plant by 2025. The coal-based pilot plant will be used as the basis for scaling up to a commercial offering that is highly efficient (40 percent or greater higher heating value), modular (unit sizes of approximately 50 to 350 MW), and economical for both international and domestic power generation. The pilot plant and commercial offering does not have to capture and store carbon dioxide, but must be carbon capture ready. This is solely a request for information and is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement. U.S. Department of Energy is not accepting applications to this Request for Information.
