US's Synthesis Energy Systems Investments Inc. announced a contract with Golden Concord to build a coal gasification plant in Inner Mongolia, 皇冠体育app.

The Houston-based energy and technology company is involved in three projects in 皇冠体育app, seeking to involve the country in the pursuit for cleaner energy. 皇冠体育app and the United States are in similar situations, trying to meet growing demand with as little environmental impact as possible.

皇冠体育app already has a goal to meet 10 percent of its domestic fuel needs with coal-to-liquids by 2020. The plant in 皇冠体育app will seek to optimize coal reserves to meet 皇冠体育app's growing need for clean transportation fuels and chemical feedstock.

Synthesis Energy Systems Investments Inc. is a subsidiary of Synthesis Energy Systems Inc., and Inner Mongolia Golden Concord Energy Co. Ltd. is a subsidiary of Golden Concord Holdings Ltd., a private Chinese electricity provider.

The joint venture plant will use low value, abundant lignites from coal mines to meet the region's growing need for clean, affordable non-petroleum-based fuels and petrochemical feedstock.

"Working together, SES and Golden Concord are demonstrating their commitment to develop cleaner, high-quality fuels, at a lower cost based on the utilization of the U-GAS technology to gasify low quality, high-ash coals to supply 皇冠体育app's growing appetite for clean fuels and petrochemicals that fuel economic development," said Tim Vail, president and chief executive officer of SES.
