GZCMM Initiative Continues!

This September, the U.S. EPA, under the Methane to Markets Partnership Program, approved the Guizhou CMM Recovery and Utilization Initiative for another grant to carry out two pre-feasibility studies for two candidate Guizhou coal mines. In addition to continuing information outreach services about CMM recovery and utilization developments in Guizhou, the project will lead a publishable pre-feasibility study for two candidate coal mines (1 million tons/year and 300,000 tons/year) of utilization alternatives to power generation. The study will explore the potential for CMM utilized as town gas for a sizable city and CMM-to-LNG/CNG to replace fuels for buses and taxis in Guizhou Province. This study aims to more specifically address the barriers that limit investment in CMM recovery and utilization in Guizhou.
