Despite the fact that coal remains one of the world’s most important energy resources, coal continues to generate controversy as coal-fired plants close and opposition is encountered towards building new ones. There is however a growing international commitment that continues to advance Clean Coal Technologies—with Canada breaking out from the pack as the clear forerunner. Canadian coal is reliable, secure and abundant; but recent challenges are threatening coal’s competitiveness. What remains is one of the most important questions we must consider—How is coal going to compete within the energy portfolio? The Canadian Institute’s 5th Annual Clean Coal Symposium will delve into the many issues and challenges surrounding clean coal and is simply one event you cannot miss.
