Retrofitting this plant for a 90% capture of CO 2 using an aminebasedscrubbing process would cost an incremental $599 million with a <strong>to</strong>tal cost of $3,865per kW.Exhibit B-3: Capture <strong>Ready</strong> and Post <strong>CCS</strong> Retrofit Capital Cost Comparison forPC Reference Plant and Amine Scrubbing OptionsCapital Cost w/ CR costs a Capital Cost w/ <strong>CCS</strong> retrofit bCapture <strong>Ready</strong> Option $000 $/kW $000 $/kWNot <strong>CCS</strong> <strong>Ready</strong> 866 1,575 1,465 3,8651: Throttle Valve Case 871 1,583 1,452 3,6822: Clutch Case 891 1,621 1,478 3,6513: Oversized Boiler Case 1,110 2,019 1,568 2,871a w/ CR – with Capture <strong>Ready</strong> pre-investmentsb w/ <strong>CCS</strong> – with CO2 capture retrofitCapture <strong>Ready</strong> Option 1 represents a minimal approach <strong>to</strong> Capture <strong>Ready</strong>, and alsorepresents a minimum savings in absolute terms of approximately $13 million or $182/kW.Option 3 has the highest initial capital cost at $1,110 million or $2,019/kW of all theoptions, because Option 3 represents a different Capture <strong>Ready</strong> approach compared withOption 1 or Option 2 (as explained above). Due <strong>to</strong> the significant upfront costs, Option 3also represents the highest-cost option in absolute terms after <strong>CCS</strong> retrofitting, at $1,56823 February 2010 80
