15 Conventional vs. SC & USC SC & USC technology offers higher efficiency and consequently lower specific flue gas throughput resulting in much cleaner electricity generation. 15

16 Conventional vs. SC & USC Conventional technology provides greater coal flexibility 16

17 Conventional vs. SC & USC Higher temperatures encountered in SC & USC units makes corrosion more critical, thus coals with slugging or corrosion potential are less suitable for SC & USC plants. 17

39 Conclusions Advanced SC & USC technology has substantial potential to improve the efficiency of PC power plant and to reduce the harmful impacts on the environment. Many Asian countries have already large capacity for SC & USC components manufacturing. SC power plants have already attained similar or even higher availability as conventional power plants. Cost patterns indicate a rapid decline in the average cost of power generation from SC & USC power plants. Higher construction costs are well balanced by lower fuel costs. SC & USC technology offers better operational dynamics at all loads and higher thermal efficiency at low loads. 39

40 Constraints SC & USC technology has to become economic against the alternative technologies such as conventional and NG-fired CCGT power plants. Ni base super-alloys are needed for higher temperatures. Higher strength materials are needed for upper water walls of boilers. Better understanding of maintenance needs of the USC boiler & ST and related auxiliary systems is essential for long-term, reliable operation. 40

41 Coal based SC power generation technology is matured and advanced technique that can be favorably compared with well proven conventional power generation technology. USC takes all advantages of well proven SC technology and is continuously build-up up on this strong SC foundation. 41

42 In the medium to long term, as NG and fuel oil become a more scarce fuel and prices increase, and in conjunction with further economic improvements in clean coal technologies, SC & USC technology can expect to receive a renaissance as a feasible option for new large scale coal fueled power generation plants. 42

43 There is no solution capable meeting of our all future energy requirements. Instead the answer will come from a family of diverse New Technologies which will have an impact on everything from environmental quality to costs that consumers will ultimately have to pay. Thank You.
