Indiana Governor: Veto of SNG Plans in Illinois Won't Affect Similar Plans in Indiana

摘要

Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels said that the Illinois governors veto of a bill sought for two coal gasification plants in his state won't affect a similar deal planned by investors in Indiana for a coal-to-synthetic natural gas (SNG) facility, The Republic reported March 19. Illinois Governor Pat Quinn said that he vetoed the legislation because the SNG would never deliver the savings promised to customers because it would cost more than conventional gas, Critics estimated that customers would pay as much as US$190 more per year beginning in 2015 and continuing for two decades.
