FutureGen site decision and planned meetings in Texas
The FutureGen project moves toward site sequestration and ownership stakes, with a nine day window before the West Texas team travels to Austin to consult with the Bureau of Economic Geology. An advisory board will then pick the final Texas site for DOE submission, as part of the Alliance proposal. The plan aligns with a Bush goal to cut foreign oil dependence by 75 percent by 2025, using plant CO2 to boost domestic oil production.

Odessa eyes FutureGen site in mid 2007 selection
The Department of Energy says the final FutureGen site will be chosen in mid to late 2007. Odessa officials expect ground to break by mid March on the Quail Run Energy Center near Odessa, adjacent to the proposed FutureGen site, highlighting coal gasification with near zero emissions and potential federal savings of four years and 200 million dollars. Other Texas contenders include Jewett Baytown Pearsall and Palestine, with Texas officials confident in the state's competitiveness.
