Sithe Global Power, LLC Toquop Energy Project

A 750 MW Coal fired electric generating plant Located 12 miles northwest of Mesquite, NV in Lincoln County Estimated Cost $1.2 billion Construction is scheduled to begin in 2007 with an online date of 2011 Site was originally permitted as a 1,100 MW gas fired electric plant. Dry Cooling – Reduces Annual Water Use by 80% to under 2,500 AF/year. The project has agreed to use municipal waste water as available for the water source. Supercritical Boilers – Reduces CO2 emissions and fuel use by 15-20% Toquop’s emission rates are expected to be among the lowest ever permitted in the US

Toquop Location

Local Economic Benefits Construction of the plant will increase the assessed value in Lincoln County over 12 times and become the largest tax payer in Lincoln County. An average of 800 construction jobs over the four-year construction period and over 110 full-time operations jobs. Direct and indirect payroll during the construction will average $150 million per year.

Project Development Philosophy Minimizing environmental effects through use of –Avoidance of environmental impacts through the use of alternative solutions –low-sulfur coal from Wyoming’s Powder River Basin –state-of-the-art emissions controls –super-critical, pulverized-coal units to minimize CO 2 emissions –natural-draft dry-cooling to minimize need for water, water will come from municipal waste water when available –design that eliminates wastewater discharge –a marketing strategy to sell combustion waste (gypsum and fly ash)

Benefits to Electric System Provides capacity need to meet rapid load growth in Southern Nevada and the South West. The plant will provide fuel diversity in a region that is heavily dependent on natural gas for electric generation. Plant location is close to Las Vegas Load center and will improve reliability of the electrical system.

Toquop Energy Project – Working for Tomorrow’s Needs - Today The goals of the Toquop Project: Provide needed energy at a reasonable cost; Use the best technology for energy production to limit impacts; Provide benefits to Lincoln County and surrounding communities; Be a Good Neighbor.
