Some of the provisions of the Senate Energy Bill (Senate 517?, I think), that has been enrolled as the Senate provisions in the conference committee bill (HR 4), include references to both Section 45 (the Wind Energy Production Credit and to Section 29 (Alternative Fuels Produced from Non-traditional Sources). 

The production tax credit expands qualified systems to include some open loop biomass, while the Section 29 provisions seem to encourage upgraded coal systems (such as SGI and KFx and other systems).
