*The [[Longleaf Energy Station]] in Georgia is a proposed 1200 MW pulverized coal fired power plant supported by the Early County (Georgia) Development Authority with federally backed local development bonds.
*The [[Two Elk Energy Park Unit 1|Two Elk coal plant]] in Wyoming is a proposed coal plant that purports to use so-called “waste coal” and has received hundreds of millions of dollars in tax-exempt debt authority since it was classified as a solid waste recycling facility. Approval for the tax-exempt financing is currently being audited by the [[Internal Revenue Service]].
*The [[Taylorville Energy Center]] got a $417 million government tax credit in July 2010. The money is from federal stimulus funds approved in 2009, and comes from the [[Department of Energy]] and the [[Treasury Department]]. Adding the $2.58 billion loan guarantee from the U.S. [[Energy Department]], total federal support for the project is now $3 billion.<ref>Bill Lambrecht, [http://www.stltoday.com/business/article_f748b47c-c707-53c9-b3f0-9a53cd6632b2.html "Illinois clean-coal project gets record federal tax credit"] stltoday.com, July 27, 2010.</ref>
