Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC)
A means of generating electricity from coal and other low grade hydrocarbons by gasifying them at the electricity generation site thereby gaining some of the efficiency of Combined Cycle Gas Turbine generation. While the chemical & engineering principles are well understood it has yet to be demonstrated as a commercial proposition.
