Subtitle F of title IX of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 ( 42 U.S.C. 16291 et seq.) is further amended by adding at the end the following: The Secretary shall conduct a program, with the purpose of reducing emissions from fossil fuel power generation by not less than 50 percent, of research, development, demonstration, and commercial application with respect to the following: High-efficiency turbines for any advanced power system that will lead to natural gas turbine combined cycle efficiency of 67 percent or combustion turbine efficiency of 50 percent.
Supercritical and ultrasupercritical carbon dioxide, with an emphasis on developing directly-fired and indirectly fired cycles in the next 10 years. Advanced combustion systems, including oxy-combustion systems and chemical looping. Fuel cell technologies for low-cost, high-efficiency, fuel-flexible, modular power systems, including solid oxide fuel cell technology for commercial, residential, and distributed generation systems, using improved manufacturing production and processes.
Gasification systems to enable carbon capture, improve efficiency, and reduce capital and operating costs. Thermal cycling with ramping or rapid black start capabilities that do not compromise efficiency or environmental performance. Small-scale and modular coal-fired technologies with reduced carbon outputs or carbon capture that can support incremental power generation capacity additions. In carrying out the program under subsection (a), the Secretary is encouraged to prioritize transformational technologies that enable a step change in reduction of emissions as compared to the technology in existence on the date of enactment of this section.
For activities under this section, there are authorized to be appropriated to the Secretary— $150,000,000 for fiscal year 2020; $157,500,000 for fiscal year 2021; $165,375,000 for fiscal year 2022; $173,643,750 for fiscal year 2023; and $182,325,938 for fiscal year 2024. .
