ETP for Zero Emission Fossil Fuel Power Plants - ZEP

>> Based on the vision of the future it developed, ETP ZEP aims at coordinating the establishment and implementation of a strategic research agenda to meet the needs of European Citizens and industry by 2020.

>> In line with the proposed priority for "Near Zero Emission Power Generation" in FP7, the technology platform will identify and remove the obstacles to the creation of highly efficient power plants with near-zero emissions which will drastically reduce the environmental impact of fossil fuel use, particularly coal. This will include CO₂ capture and storage, as well as clean conversion technologies leading to substantial improvements in plant efficiency, reliability and costs.
