Explanation:

Both statements are correct:

Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) uses Syngas, which is a synthetic gas produced from solid fuels like coal or biomass, to fuel the combustion turbine.

IGCC systems are designed to be highly efficient by reusing the exhaust heat from the combustion turbine to generate steam, which then drives a steam turbine. This combined cycle approach increases the overall efficiency of power generation.
