Southern Company’s Alabama Power collaborates with Eco Material Technologies

Eco Material Technologies announced a collaboration with Alabama Power, a subsidiary of Southern Company, to harvest millions of tons of stored ash from Plant Barry, a coal- and natural gas-fired electrical generation facility in Bucks, Alabama. This project is the third such harvesting plant with Southern Company, following Plants Bowen and Branch in Georgia. Under the agreement, Eco Material will harvest more than 700,000 tons of stored ash per year from the plant. The effort will remove and beneficially use millions of tons of ash over the term of the agreement.
