Global CO2 Emissions • 2012 global CO2 emissions totaled 32.2 billion metric tons. • Of that, China accounted for 28 percent. • The U.S. accounted for 17 percent. • Global emissions have increased 15 percent since 2005. • 80 percent of the increase is because of growth in China. • By 2040, emissions from developing countries will rise by more than 70 percent.
U.S. Greenhouse Emissions • In 2011, EGU CO2 emissions were 10 percent below 2005 levels. • Preliminary 2012 EIA data indicates EGU emissions were 15 percent below 2005 levels.
Proposed CO2 Regs • 1,100 lbs. per MWh for new coal plants. • CCS would be required to meet goal. • 1,000 lbs. per MWh for new natural gas plants. • New Turk plant is 1,800 lbs. per MWh.

IGCC Status • Duke Edwardsport IGCC • Began commercial operation June 2013. • 618 MW facility without CO2 capture. • Estimated Cost: $3.4 billion or $5,500/kW. • Southern Company Kemper IGCC • Under construction (expected COD mid-2014). • 582 MW facility with 65 percent CO2 capture (3.5 million tonnes per year). • Estimated Cost: $4.7 billion to date or $8,000/kW (original estimate about $2.4 billion). • By comparison, the Turk plant is a 620 MW ultra-supercritical and was completed at a cost of about $1.8 billion, or $2,900/kW.
