First Chinese coal mine is selected for EEStech Inc HCGT power station
Renewable energy and water purification specialist EESTech Inc, (EESH.OB) and the Liaoning Fuxin Coal Group of Northern China have selected the HaiZhou coal mine as the first coal mine in China to use the HCGT power plant technology.

EESTech representatives and engineers from the Liaoning Fuxin Coal Group last week selected the location and site for the first ten megawatt HCGT power plant. Geological surveys will now commence in preparation for construction in early 2007.

These works follow EESTech Inc being awarded a contract with Liaoning Fuxin Coal Group of Northern China to build a 10-megawatt power plant as stage one of a two-stage power project using the HCGT technology.

HCGT uses coal waste and ventilated air methane (VAM) to produce electricity. This can significantly reduce fugitive methane gas emissions from underground coal mines and potentially save the coal mining industry millions of dollars annually in reduced expenditure for managing waste coal.

The Fuxin Coal Group is one of the largest coal companies in China, with North China having most coal resources, accounting for 49.25% of the nationally available reserves. China is the biggest coal producer in the World with an annual output of 1.95 billion tonnes of coal in 2004.

This HaiZhou coal mine is stage one of a twenty-year coal mine methane utilisation project and is expected to generate in excess of $100 million dollars over the lifetime of the project. China's coal mines produce over 10 billion m3 of methane emissions per year and this project will demonstrate the efficient use of this resource for producing environmentally beneficial electricity.

EESTech Inc. is pleased to be awarded this contract to deliver a “Clean Coal Technology” HCGT power plant that will benefit the environment and reduce airborne pollution to produce electricity. This project will be registered as a Clean Development Mechanism of China under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and is a significant development towards a cleaner and sustainable environment.

EESTech Inc., is the acronym of "Economically and Environmentally Sustainable Technology" so this project is a demonstration of how government and industry can work together to develop a cleaner environment.

EESTech Inc has secured a technology license from ComEnergy Pty Ltd for this project.

ComEnergy Pty Ltd and its partners have developed the Hybrid Coal and Gas Turbine (HCGT) over many years and has assigned EESTech the marketing rights to establish the required 30 megawatt power generating capacity in China using the HCGT technology.

An outstanding asset of the HCGT technology is its ability to convert coal mine methane into carbon dioxide and earn Green House Gas Abatement Credits, as an additional income source.
