<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This Proxy Statement is furnished to the shareholders of ADA-ES, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;), a Colorado corporation, in connection with the
solicitation of proxies by the Company&#146;s Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;), to be voted at our ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS to be held on Wednesday, June&nbsp;16, 2010, at the Company&#146;s offices at 8100 SouthPark Way, Unit B,
Littleton, Colorado and any postponements or adjournments thereof. This Proxy Statement and accompanying form of proxy is first being mailed or given to our shareholders on or about May&nbsp;7, 2010. The shares represented by all proxies that are
properly executed and submitted will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions indicated thereon, and if no instructions are given, then in the discretion of the proxy holder. Throughout this Proxy Statement, the terms
&#147;we,&#148; &#147;us&#148; &#147;our&#148; and &#147;our Company&#148; refer to ADA-ES, Inc., and unless the context indicates otherwise, our consolidated subsidiaries. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our Board has fixed the close of business on April&nbsp;30, 2010, as the record date for determination of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote
at the meeting. On the record date, 7,410,976 shares of our Common Stock were issued and outstanding, each of which entitles the holder thereof to one vote on all matters that may come before the meeting. We do not have any class of voting
securities outstanding other than our Common Stock. An abstention or withholding authority to vote will be counted as present for determining whether the quorum requirement is satisfied. If a quorum exists, actions or matters other than the election
of the Board are approved if the votes cast in favor of the action exceed the votes cast opposing the action unless a greater number is required by the Colorado Business Corporation Act or our Articles of Incorporation. Abstentions will not affect
the election of directors. </FONT></P>  <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If as of the record date your shares were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other
similar organization, then that firm or organization is the shareholder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting and you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in &#147;street name.&#148; If you are a beneficial owner, you
have the right to direct your broker or other agent regarding how to vote the shares held in your account. If you do not instruct your broker on how to vote your shares, your brokerage firm, in its discretion, may vote your shares on routine matters
or they may elect not to vote your shares. The proposal to ratify the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm for the current fiscal year is considered a &#147;routine matter,&#148; but the other proposals being voted on at
the Meeting (including Proposal 1 concerning the election of directors and Proposal 3 concerning the Stock Issuance Plan) are not considered &#147;routine matters&#148; and brokers will not be entitled to vote on those proposals absent specific

non-vote occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial holder does not have discretionary voting power and does not receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Broker non-votes on a particular proposal are considered present for
purposes of determining a quorum, but will not be treated as shares present and entitled to vote on the proposal and accordingly will have no effect on the vote. </FONT></P>

Proposal 2 is not required by our bylaws or otherwise. The Board is submitting this proposal to the shareholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the shareholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will
reconsider whether or not to retain this firm. We anticipate that a representative of EKS&amp;H, who conducted the audits for the years ended December&nbsp;31, 2008 and 2009, will be present at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. There have been no
disagreements on matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosures or audit scope or procedures between the Company and EKS&amp;H, during the most recent fiscal year or any subsequent interim period. The representative
of EKS&amp;H will be available to respond to shareholder questions and will have the opportunity to make a statement at that time if the representative desires to do so. </FONT></P>

more than 3.5&nbsp;million shares of our common stock (either directly or by the conversion of preferred stock and the exercise of warrants that would be issued in connection with any such direct common stock or preferred stock issuance or

in such a financing. The future issuance price, conversion price or exercise price, as applicable, will probably be determined in relation to the market price of our common stock at the time of the issuance. Consequently, it is impossible to

Coal&#146;s primary purpose is to qualify for Section&nbsp;45 Tax Credits under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;IRC&#148;), which are obtained through the placing into service of facilities that produce &#147;refined
coal&#148; (as defined in the IRC). In 2009 Clean Coal pursued several opportunities for placing refined coal facilities into service, ultimately placing two such facilities in service prior to January&nbsp;1, 2010, both of which demonstrated the
required emission reductions for their refined coal product to qualify for the tax credits. We are continuing to work with Congress and consultants in Washington, D.C. to pursue an extension of the deadline to qualify for the tax credits. The
design, construction and placement into service of additional refined coal facilities that qualify for the tax credits would require capital investment by the Company. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">We have been involved in developing and implementing technology for the control of hazardous pollutants from coal-fired boilers since 2000. Pursuant to
the resolution of recent litigation, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has agreed to adopt rules reducing hazardous air pollutants (&#147;HAP&#148;) by November 2011, with implementation in 2014. These rules will establish a Maximum
Achievable Control Technology (MACT)-based HAP regulation, which we believe will include the requirement to control mercury, organic compounds, volatile metals such as arsenic and selenium and acid gases such as hydrochloric acid from power plants.
Additional regulation may require MACT-based mercury emissions regulation for the Portland cement industry or stricter mercury emissions control generally. We believe these new regulations will expand the market for our activated carbon injection
(&#147;ACI&#148;) systems in North America. We have garnered an approximate 30% market share of ACI systems sold in North America. Pursuit of opportunities to maintain a similar market share in an expanding market will require investment of capital.
We have also been engaged in the design and construction of an activated carbon manufacturing facility in Louisiana through an investment in ADA Carbon Solutions, LLC a venture which we are pursuing with Energy Capital Partners I, LP and its
affiliated funds and expect to have the opportunity to invest in expanded AC production through ADA Carbon Solutions, which would require investment capital. </FONT></P>

issue both common stock and preferred stock, and the Board can designate the rights, preferences and privileges of any series of preferred stock. However, unless the securities are issued in a public offering, the issuance of common stock or the
conversion of any such preferred stock that has a conversion price below the market price on the date of issuance must comply with the 20% Rule, or if the conversion price is at or above market and the conversion would result in the issuance of
greater than 20% of the outstanding common stock on a post-conversion basis, such issuance must comply with the Change of Control Rule. Although we do not yet know the price of the securities to be offered in a future financing or series of
financings, we are seeking shareholder approval at this time in order to be able to complete any such future financings in a timely manner in order to allow us to take advantage of favorable market conditions or heightened investor interest.
Furthermore, we believe that the ability to issue securities without restriction on the issuance, conversion or exercise thereof will provide us with better leverage in negotiating the terms of any such future financing with potential investors.

Control Rule for any anticipated financing where we propose to issue securities at a price at or above market. We do not have terms, including the price of the securities issuable pursuant to the proposed financing, at this time, although the
maximum amount of common stock or securities convertible into common stock discussed above will be the maximum amount of dilution experienced by our current shareholders as a result of any such issuance. </FONT></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Compensation Discussion and Analysis </B></FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Our philosophy for executive compensation is set forth in a document entitled &#147;ADA-ES Executive Compensation Plan&#148; (the &#147;EC Plan&#148;)
which was adopted by the Board on November&nbsp;4, 2004. The EC Plan applies to the Executive Team, which includes the President/Chief Executive Officer, the Chief Operating Officer, the Chief Financial Officer, and all Vice Presidents of the
Company. Executives become eligible to participate in this plan after completing 12 months of continuous service with ADA-ES. Participation may be modified based on the Board&#146;s approval. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Compensation Committee establishes the base salary for all executive officers and establishes annual performance incentives. The CEO makes
recommendations as to base salary of all other executive officers to the Committee. Base salary is defined as ongoing, cash compensation paid bi-weekly based on such factors as job responsibilities, external competitiveness, and the
individual&#146;s experience and performance. Pay ranges are set based on the local market for similar positions, with consideration given to regional and national rates of pay for employees serving similar functions in comparable companies. Base
salary is typically increased annually based on cost of labor/living increases. In determining appropriate merit increases, we consider the actual market change for various job families in addition to published local CPI-U data. The market change is
determined by tracking the year-over-year change in the median rate for a given position or job family using regional salary surveys. ADA-ES attempts to ensure middle market pay for solid performers and consider higher levels of pay for outstanding
performers. ADA-ES does not intend to be a market leader in base compensation. A decision to materially increase or decrease compensation would be based on the aforementioned factors. In the second quarter of 2009 we instituted programs to conserve
cash and working capital including a 30% reduction in cash compensation paid to certain executive officers. Such reductions are reflected in the Summary Compensation table shown below. On April&nbsp;13, 2010, our Board eliminated such reductions,
such that such executive officers&#146; cash compensation was returned to their prior levels. Our Board also approved a 10% increase in the base salary of Dr.&nbsp;Durham, our President and CEO, and a 5% increase in the base salaries of
Mr.&nbsp;McKinnies, our Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, and Ms.&nbsp;Bustard, our Chief Operating Officer, based on recent market data, the fact that we are at a critical point in implementing the Company&#146;s growth strategy,
in recognition of such executives&#146; recent significant achievements and to ensure retention of such individuals. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Annual performance incentives are designed to motivate the management team to achieve critical short-term
goals, typically one to two years, which are expected to contribute to the long-term health and value of the organization. Incentives may be paid in cash or equity as determined by the Board. We expect that for the next few years, payment will be
primarily in stock. We generally grant restricted stock awards to new executives at the Board meeting following the commencement of employment. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Incentive amounts are set based on organization level and market practices. The performance metrics under the EC Plan focus on specific business
objectives set during the first half of each year. Objectives are those quantitative metrics, such as revenue and working capital, which management and the Board determine are most important to the short and long term health and value of the
organization. Potential incentive amounts for 2008 and 2009 performance were established at 50% and 40% of base salary for the CEO and other members of the executive team, respectively. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In 2004, we adopted the Executive Stock Option Plan (the &#147;2004 ESO Plan&#148;) discussed below, and granted all 200,000 options authorized under
such plan to our then five executive officers, expecting to utilize the acceleration of vesting of such options, for so long as they are available, as the means to pay any incentive amounts earned by the executive officers pursuant to the EC Plan
who are also covered in the 2004 ESO Plan for the following several years. Because the exercise prices of the outstanding options far exceeded our stock price, in early 2009, the Board vested all remaining outstanding stock options including those
remaining in the 2004 ESO Plan. We have not granted options to the executive officers who received options under the 2004 ESO Plan since 2004. Our share-based compensation, including options granted under the 2003 Plan and the 2004 ESO Plan, is
accounted for at an estimated fair value (See Footnote 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item&nbsp;8 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December&nbsp;31, 2009). </FONT></P>

(the &#147;2008 Incentive Award&#148;). The Compensation Committee allocated 25% of the 2008 Incentive Award to the CEO and gave the CEO discretion to allocate the remaining $300,000 to the other executive officers. Each executive officer could
elect to receive up to 50% of his or her portion of the 2008 Incentive Award in cash. In early 2010 the Compensation Committee approved an incentive award earned by executive officers based on 2009 performance under the EC Plan with a value of
approximately $210,000 in the aggregate for the CEO and the other executive officers as a group (the &#147;2009 Incentive Award&#148;). The Compensation Committee allocated 25% of the 2009 Incentive Award to the CEO and gave the CEO discretion to
allocate the remaining $157,500 to the other executive officers. Each executive received 100% of his or her portion of the 2009 Incentive Award in the Company&#146;s stock to the extent issuance was not capped by the annual per share limit of the

National Association of Corporate Directors 2008-09 Director Compensation Report and Survey Data and has sought the input of representatives of such Council on its compensation structure and amounts. MSEC has also been engaged by the Compensation
Committee and has assisted with the design and application of the EC Plan, advised on the appropriateness of incentive levels for executive positions and provided assistance in setting the weight for metrics in modeling the EC Plan. </FONT></P>

submit a proposal at the meeting that is not included in the Company&#146;s proxy statement, and the shareholder fails to notify the Company prior to March&nbsp;25, 2011 of such proposal, then the proxies appointed by the Company&#146;s management
would be allowed to use their discretionary voting authority when the proposal is raised at the annual meeting, without any discussion of the matter in the proxy statement. The proponent must own 1% or more of the outstanding shares or $2,000 in
market value, of our Common Stock and must have continuously owned such shares for one year and intend to continue to hold such shares through the date of the Annual Meeting in order to present a shareholder proposal to the Company. </FONT></P>
