Babcock & Wilcox Collaborates With TerraSpark To Support Its Planned Energy Generation Project In West Virginia

The project, known as the TerraSpark Energy Campus, will include a 1.6-gigawatt (GW) coal-fired power plant, a multi-industry campus and a Coal Innovation & Training Center for rare earth extraction and advanced materials initiatives. The project has been awarded an $18.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to support its development.

As part of the intended collaboration, B&W's anticipated scope for the project would include the design and supply of four 400-megawatt supercritical boilers and a full suite of advanced emissions control equipment. Additionally, Babcock & Wilcox Construction Co., LLC would be expected to provide construction services. B&W will also work closely with Mantel for the project's carbon capture technology.
