Madison Power Corp. ("Madison") is a project developer specializing in the development and financing of gasification projects that convert coal or oil refinery waste streams into high value products such as electricity, natural gas, and hydrogen. Madison has teamed up with a large equity fund to provide development and equity funding for each project.

Projects Under Development

Since early 2004, Madison has been developing gasification projects in Illinois, California, Louisiana, and Michigan. After completing feasibility studies for a 600 MW integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) project and a 100 million standard cubic feet per day substitute natural gas (SNG) project, the State of Illinois awarded Madison and its development team $5 million to begin detailed engineering for both projects. ConocoPhillips was selected to provide its E-Gas gasification technology and the Fluor Corporation was selected to serve as the turnkey engineering, procurement, and construction contractor. Both projects will operate on a blend of high sulfur No. 6 Illinois Coal and fuel grade (high sulfur) petroleum coke supplied by oil refineries throughout the Midwest.

Madison is also working with a large oil company in California to develop a gasification project that will convert a refinery waste stream into clean syngas and CO2. The syngas will be used to displace natural gas consumed by several steam boilers used for thermally-enhanced heavy oil recovery operations while the CO2 will be used to support lighter oil recovery operations.

In Louisiana, Madison is working with a large oil refinery to develop a gasification project that will convert a refinery waste stream into hydrogen and electricity. In addition, CO2 produced by the syngas conditioning process will be sold to an oil company to support its enhanced oil recovery operation on the Gulf Coast.

And in Michigan, Madison is working with the owner of a combined cycle plant to convert a portion of the plant's capacity from natural gas to syngas generated with a mix of western coal and petroleum coke.
