The IEA Clean Coal Centre disseminates information and analysis on all aspects of coal from a global perspective. It publishes a number of specialised topical reports each year, operates a suite of databases and organises targeted conferences and workshops. The staff are available to provide advice and analysis to members.

Reports

The in-depth reports are produced mainly by the permanent staff, although a few are contracted out. The members select the subjects to be reviewed at the twice yearly Executive Committee meetings. Reports cover every aspect of the entire coal chain from mining to environmental effects and policy, but concentrate on power generation and clean coal technologies. A list of recently completed reports is available from our bookshop. 

Databases 

A number of databases and information facilities are operated by the Clean Coal Centre. They include:

Coal Meetings – coal conferences, workshops and meetings worldwide

Clean Coal Technologies – descriptions of the various clean coal technologies.
