Description
A carbon capture and storage (CCS) project aimed at reducing the carbon intensity of Chevron’s operations in San Joaquin Valley, California.
The project includes the installation of CO2 post-combustion capture equipment, capturing the CO2 and then safely storing it thousands of feet underground. This CCS initiative would begin at Chevron’s 50 MW Kern River Eastridge cogeneration plant in Kern County, California.
