MUMBAI, INDIA - Energy Quest, Inc., an emerging leader in the development and production of hydrogen-enriched alternative fuels and alternative power generation in an environmentally responsible manner, announced that it has received a Letter of Intent from Vimala Enterprise of Mumbai, India for the construction of two electrical power generation plants in India.

One of the plants is a 500MW clean coal power project (coal gasification) 1st phase and a second 700 MW 2nd phase for a total of 1200 MW for the two plants. Energy Quest will be providing proven gasification technologies, procurement, commissioning and management of the project.

Energy Quest, Inc. and their representative in India have been in negotiations with Vimala Enterprise of Mumbai, India along with their project developers to establish clean coal power projects in India. The agreement remains subject to mutual acceptance.
