Clean Coal may not be out of the stimulus bill
I have just read the final stimulus bill as posted on the House Appropriations Committee web site. The statement that clean coal R&D is out of the stimulus is not correct. The bill provides $3.4 billion for fossil fuel R&D for the Department of Energy. It is going to be up to DOE to decide how to spend the money, and I am sure the coal lobby is gearing up to get some of that money to the Future Gen or other carbon capture and sequestration projects.
