QLD coal mine gas project to reduce greenhouse gas emissions

摘要

It is GE Energy's largest ecomagination certified, coal mine methane (CMM) power plant in Australia and it has been commissioned ahead of schedule as more mining companies seek to utilise their mine gas to create electricity for local uses and reduce their site emissions. Through the capture and utilisation of coal mine gas, the Moranbah North project will deliver significant environmental benefits, saving up to about 1.5 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalents per year. The 15-engine, 45.6MW power plant, contracted by Energy Developments Limited, is designed to contribute to the country's energy development goals and is accredited under the New South Wales' Government Greenhouse Gas Abatement Scheme.
