Achieve New Possibilities With RE POWER®
Safely transform power plant sites to optimize asset value and maximize ROI.
While redeveloping retired coal-fired power plant sites presents unique challenges that aren’t encountered on greenfield sites, these assets are excellent candidates for low- and zero-carbon energy production.
These sites are located along existing transportation networks (e.g., rail, road, barge), which allows for the timely importation of raw materials and access to water required for cooling and hydrogen production. They are also located in close proximity to existing transmission networks (e.g., electrical grid, natural gas pipelines), which reduces upfront capital investments.
Equally important, the communities around retired coal-fired power plants have an existing workforce experienced in energy production projects.
