FutureGen Alliance - Response to DOE's Request for Information

Mon, 03 Mar 2008 00:00:00 PST

The FutureGen Alliance has unwavering support for FutureGen at Mattoon and is interested in working with DOE on a path forward.

DOE's restructured approach falls short of the national need in many respects, including the schedule, the technical approach, and the business model proposed. If DOE chooses to pursue other projects, they should be complements to, not substitutes for, FutureGen at Mattoon.
