Title 42 › CHAPTER 134 — ENERGY POLICY › SUBCHAPTER VI — COAL › Part B — Clean Coal Technology Program › § 13351

Last updated Sep 22, 2026|Official source

Summary

Require the program to push fast development of cheaper, more efficient ways to turn coal into useful energy and to cut pollution better than today’s commercial coal technology. The program must try, as much as possible, to have those technologies ready for commercial use by 2010. When running the Clean Coal Program from Public Law 98–473, the Secretary must look at whether to hold extra solicitations. If the Secretary does more, they may run them so they match the same scope and federal cost-sharing percentage as Public Law 101–121.
