ADA-ES Awarded Contracts for Mercury Control Systems for Three Power Plants

Posted on: Wednesday, 1 March 2006, 12:01 CST

ADA-ES, Inc. (NASDAQ:ADES) today announced that it has been awarded new contracts to supply commercial mercury control systems for two existing coal-fired power plants and one new power plant in the Western U.S. The total value of contracts for the activated carbon injection equipment is in excess of $2 million. The equipment will be designed, fabricated, and delivered in several phases during 2006 and 2007.

ADA-ES has demonstrated activated carbon-based mercury control technology at over 20 power plants across the country and this technology has become the leading option for control of mercury emissions.

Mike Durham, President of ADA-ES, stated, "These contracts reinforce the important role that carbon injection technology is playing in the control of mercury from coal-fired power plants. Combined with the three contracts we announced in 2005, we now have contracts that will result in six commercial mercury control systems. We continue to provide quotes to a number of power plants and expect more contracts to be awarded for this key technology this year. These contracts also show that state consent decrees will be a significant driver for the mercury control business in addition to new state and pending federal mercury control laws."
