Abbott Power granted permit
Posted by Gwendolyn Childers on February 28, 2012
Abbott Power Plant was granted an IEPA permit to co-fire biomass with coal until June 30, 2013. F&S intends to do some test burns this spring with wood chips. Wood chips have a good track record in stoker boilers, and we are fairly confident we can demonstrate a successful trial. In addition, wood chips appear to be one of the most cost effective sources of biomass available at this time.
