Description
Tenaska is advancing the Pineywood CCS Hub, a carbon sequestration hub in Houston, Texas. As of May 2024, the project is highly developed.
The project offers CO2 storage for manufacturers, power producers, and other carbon emitters in Southeast Texas. CO2 emissions from these facilities would be captured and transported to geologically secure underground storage locations in the vicinity of Houston, Beaumont and Port Arthur, Texas.
The project has 5 to 6 above-ground injection wells.
Tenaska’s base facility has 5 million metric tons per year of storage capacity, plus the necessary pipeline infrastructure to bring the emissions in.
The base facility design costs approximately $500m to build, with variations depending on the land position, site geology, and required pipeline miles.
