AMPGS Initial Project Feasibility Study Update
This is a copy of the AMPGS Initial Feasibility Study Update, completed by R.W. Beck, AMP’s Owners’ Engineer for the project, in October 2008. A small amount of information, detailing certain construction costs – not the total costs – has been redacted from the study as it is proprietary in nature. Publication gives an advantage to vendors during negotiations on EPC contracts that would be harmful to AMP member communities by handicapping our ability to negotiate and may result in higher costs.
Initial Project Feasibility Update
AMPGS leverages the latest in proven, state-of-the-art emission control equipment, which will make the plant the cleanest in the region and one of the cleanest of its type in the nation. This plant will use Powerspan’s ECO-SO2 technology to control sulfur dioxide emissions with co-benefits for the control of mercury and particulate matter. Powerspan produces a valuable fertilizer co-product, instead of the synthetic gypsum produced from traditional limestone scrubbing technologies.
This will greatly reduce the annual volume of material from the power plant that needs to be placed in a landfill. Powerspan’s patented pollutant-control technology achieves outlet emissions levels at, or below, those of best-available-control technologies. Additionally, in laboratory testing conducted by the company and the Department of Energy, Powerspan technology was able to achieve 90 percent CO2 capture.
AMP received a $30 million bridge loan from the Ohio Air Quality Development Authority (OAQDA) to assist in project development. The AMPGS project, along with a Perrysburg solar panel manufacturer, were selected to receive the first two funding awards from the $150 million advanced energy portion of the Ohio Bipartisan Job Stimulus Plan.
This page includes a wealth of resources and information on the project, including PDFs and links to more background.
