GE Energy Reports Commissioning of Methane-Fired Power Plant in Australia

GE Energy has announced that its ecomagination-certified, coal mine methane-fired power plant at Anglo Coal's Moranbah North mine in Queensland, Australia has been commissioned ahead of schedule as more mining companies seek to utilize their mine gas to create electricity for local uses and reduce their site emissions. Through the capture and utilization of mine gas, the Moranbah North project will deliver significant environmental benefits, saving up to about 1.5 million tons of CO2 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.
