In 2007, GE and BP formed a global alliance to jointly develop and deploy technology for at least five IGCC power plants that could significantly reduce carbon dioxide emissions from electricity generation. and the Polk Tampa Electric IGCC plant in Florida, that helped demonstrate the commercial feasibility of IGCC.

IGCC and carbon capture technologies have been commercially demonstrated and will need to be widely deployed to enable low cost power generation from domestic fossil energy resources, while at the same time achieving significant reductions in carbon dioxide emissions globally.

Life cycle inventories have typically been presented at global, national, or regional levels—sufficient for understanding global processes such as climate change and fossil fuel depletion, but insufficient for the analysis of local processes such as air pollution, according to the researchers.

From a global climate change perspective, it does not matter where or from what source the reduction occurs: the effect on the atmospheric concentration of GHGs would be the same. Although Congress could address GHG emissions with alternative policies—e.g.,

According to a report by the UN’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the margin of error in measuring emissions by DOEs can be as high as: 10% for the cement and fertilizer industries; 60% for the oil, gas, and coal industries; and. 100% for some agricultural processes.
