Energy Solutions

At a time when energy security is among the top concerns in America, Peabody and ConocoPhillips are creating a model to produce clean energy from secure, domestic sources.

• ConocoPhillips’ proprietary E-Gas™ technology would create a clean natural gas from Peabody’s abundant coal resources in the state of Kentucky.
• The plant would produce pipeline quality natural gas, just like we use to heat our homes, prepare our meals and power our lives. And it will help meet the growing demand for natural gas in the U.S.
• The project would produce 60-70 billion cubic feet of natural gas annually, enough natural gas to serve over three quarters of a million families a year.
• Kentucky consumption in 2006 was 211 Bcf and U.S. consumption in 2007 was 23,054 Bcf.
