Summary

Require extra clean-coal project solicitations to speed up the development of cheaper, more efficient ways to turn coal into energy and to better control coal emissions, with the goal that those technologies be ready for commercial use by 2010. Under the Clean Coal Program (Public Law 98–473), the Secretary must consider and may run these solicitations, and they should match the scope and federal cost-sharing used in Public Law 101–121.
