Secretary of Energy Invites Poland to Join Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum

U.S. Energy Secretary Spencer Abraham invited Poland to become the 17th member of the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF), an international climate change initiative that focuses on the development of carbon capture and storage technologies. "I believe the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum is a vital part of the world's energy security because coal will be an inescapable part of our energy mix for years to come," Secretary Abraham said May 28. Abraham made his remarks following his tour of the "ELCHO" power plant, which is powered with clean coal technology developed under the Department of Energy's (DOE) Clean Coal program and located in Chorzow, in the Silesia region of southern Poland.
