The project entails the decommissioning and dismantling of the coal boilers at ASRC and installing other energy and water-use efficiency equipment. It also includes the installation of a new boiler house with three natural gas boilers and a new boiler water treatment process. The installation is projected to save 40 million gallons of water and at least 43,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually, a 44% GHG reduction.
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) released applicant self-disclosed information for 22 projects across 17 states that voluntarily shared with DOE that they received a total of nearly $1 billion in allocations from the Qualifying Advanced Energy Project Credit (48C). Nine of the self-disclosed projects indicated they are located in 48C energy communities – communities with closed coal mines or coal plants—showcasing the Biden Administration’s commitment to investing in America’s energy communities.
