  2. Fortune magazine, April 2, 2007 Over 11 graphics in this issue alone dealing with the environment and positive economics……

  3. Fortune

  4. “The waste we collect helps power over one million homes.” “Waste Management - - Think Green.”

  5. SIEMENS ELECTRIC “…our innovations are designed to minimize their impact on the environment.”

  6. “Clean Power Today! Instead of imagining a better environment, let us help you make it happen.”

  7. “All in favor of protecting the environment, raise your hand.” Home Depot

  8. “With over 800 environmentally responsible, high quality papers, using DOMTAR EarthChoice helps protect his world and yours.” “DOMTAR EarthChoice …. high quality paper with a conscience.”

  9. “ …. putting environmental savings in a whole new light.” Sea Gull Lighting

  10. “… the sky is the limit……Because for all of us at ADM, there are no limits to a cleaner, greener world.”

  11. United Technologies

  12. AEP: An Introduction Among the largest U.S. electricity generators with 39,000 MW America’s largest coal user The nation’s largest electrical transmission system >240,000 miles of T&D A large consumerof natural gas Major wind developer 5 million customers in 11 states

  13. AEP is America’s Largest Coal User

  14. Sustainability ….. The ability to meet our present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs

  15. AEP’s 2006 Corporate Responsibility Report • Our Vision for Sustainability • safely provide reliable, reasonably priced electric power • actively work to protect people and the environment. • engage stakeholders • continue our role in making people’s lives better today and for generations to come

  16. Asset Recovery Environmental Services Information Technology Generation Transmission Distribution Telecommunications Materials Services Fleet Workplace Services Land Management Procurement Aviation Waste-to-Profit at AEP is enterprise-wide

  17. Asset Recovery Group • Take surplus assets • generate revenue • balance risk • address environmental concerns • support customers’ missions

  18. Representative Projects • CCP utilization • Power Plant demolition and salvage • electric motors • spare parts • scrap metals • Spent Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) catalyst modules • Used electrical equipment / transformers • Information Technology equipment • Mobile phones

  19. 2006 - - Waste-to-Profit examples Scrap Metal sales $8.8 million Material sales $3.4 million from: • Generation = $2.0 million • Utility = $1.3 million • Other = $62,000 Cost avoidance / savings $2.2 million _____________________ __________________________ Total $14.4 million (CCPs not included)

  20. Coal Combustion Products (CCPs) CCP production and utilization at AEP burned 74.8 million tons of coal in 2005 at 22 power plants produced 8.2 million tons of CCPs utilized 44% in concrete, structural fill, ice control (grit), etc. represents ~$18 million / year in revenues and avoided costs CCP utilized in: concrete, concrete block, road base asphalt and ice control flowable fill and structural fill paint manufacturing, Corvette body production, blasting grit, amber glass manufacturing, roofing shingles and wallboard mined land reclamation (both contours and AMD treatment)

  21. FLY ASH BOTTOM ASH SCRUBBER MATERIAL BOILER SLAG CCPs

  22. CCP Utilization Avoids Disposal

  23. Synthetic gypsum as a useable byproduct

  24. CCP Utilization

  25. CCP Utilization

  26. CCP and Mine Reclamation • CCP used to reclaim highwalls and to treat acid mine drainage

  27. Reclaimed, Mined Land Use Tree Plantation for paper mill feedstock

  28. Working with EPRI on Beneficial Uses for Old Poles and Crossarms

  29. Biomass co-firing at Picway Plant Utilizing cabinet maker’s waste wood to augment coal-fired production of electricity

  30. Power Plant Demolition & Salvage

  31. Spent SCR Catalysts

  32. Used Electrical Equipment

  33. Used Electrical Equipment • Some used electrical equipment is rebuilt • Partially offsets cost of new units

  34. IT End-of-Life Program • contract is in place to take used IT equipment and refurbish or recycle • AEP Asset Recovery is working to improve the return

  35. chilled ammonia process for capturing CO2 emissions from two AEP power plants : • initial validation at Mountaineer Plant (4Q 2008) • commercial-scale at Northeastern Plant in OK (late 2011) • 1.5 million tons of CO2/year captured & sequestered • approximate capital cost of ~$250-300 million • annual O&M of ~$12 million AEP’s CO2 Capture and Enhanced Oil Recovery Enhanced Oil Recovery - - Used to increase production from mature oil fields water or gas traditionally was injected to increase pressure but recently are seeing CO2 being used sell the captured CO2 for Enhanced Oil Recovery in Oklahoma Northeastern Station 3&4 ~ End ~
