CCS in texas?

NRG energy have just formed an agreement with the environmental defence fund and the Texas clean air cities coalition to limit the CO2 produced as they increase the size of an existing power station by building a new coal powered boiler.

Under the terms of the agreement they will have to offset or sequester 50% of the carbon generated by the new unit.
The agreement mentions several ways in which this could be done:

Agricultural or forestry sequestration

Retiring older, less efficient generation assets

Bringing new wind or solar generation online

Postcombustion carbon capture and storage technology (at a different power station).

At first glance this could be a road map for kingsnorth - except of course that Eon (who as you know own kingsnorth) are already doing (or in the case of carbon capture and storage are into the last round of the governemnts competition and if they win they will do) all of the above, and extra.

It's nice to know that we're further ahead than the americans, however I can't imagine any NGO doing a deal with Eon over kingsnorth.
Everyone seems to have latched onto the proposal, and don't seem as though they want to budge - regardless of the benefits which could be traded with Eon for their tacet approval of the plant.

Seems a shame.
