A feasibility study was conducted by the Kansas Geological Survey and the University of Kansas for a commercial-scale CCS project in Kansas. This feasibility study examined three of Kansas’ largest CO2 point sources, nearby storage sites, and prospective CO2 transportation networks. Westar Energy’s Jeffrey Energy Center near St. Marys, Kansas served as the primary site… Continue reading ICKan
The Kemper County Energy Facility is a lignite-fueled integrated gasification combined-cycle (IGCC) facility. The plant design incorporates the air-blown TRIG™ technology jointly developed by Southern Company, KBR, and DOE. Mississippi Power Company, a Southern Company subsidiary, owns and operates the plant. The facility was supposed to employ emissions control equipment to produce marketable byproducts of… Continue reading Kemper County CCS
The Southern States Energy Board is leading a coalition of southern universities and technical experts to establish a commercial-scale (438 million metric tons of capacity) CO2 Storage Complex adjacent to Mississippi Power’s Kemper County energy facility. Project ECO2S will pursue advances in CO2 storage knowledge and technology, including optimizing CO2 storage efficiency, modeling the fate… Continue reading Mississippi Power | SSEB | Project ECO2S
Potential commercial-scale CO2 geological storage complexes in the East sub-basin of the Illinois Basin, with a view toward identifying sites capable of storing more than 50 million metric tons of CO2 from one or more industrial sources. The project is part of the Integrated Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Pre-Feasibility phase of the Carbon Storage… Continue reading CarbonSAFE Illinois East Sub-Basin
A commercial-scale geological storage complex in Macon County, IL, that could store 50 million tonnes or more of industrially sourced CO2. The target reservoir is the Mt. Simon sandstones. The project is part of the Storage Complex Feasibility phase of the Carbon Storage Assurance Facility Enterprise (CarbonSAFE) Initiative.
A commercial-scale CO2 geologic storage complex able to store 50+ million tonnes of CO2 in central North Dakota. This project evaluated two study areas and their respective geologic storage complexes located adjacent to separate coal-fired facilities in North Dakota: the Basin Electric Power Cooperative-owned Great Plains Synfuels Plant and the Minnkota Power Cooperative-owned Milton R.… Continue reading North Dakota Integrated Carbon Storage Complex
The proposed project includes a commercial carbon capture facility at the existing Taft cogeneration power plant (natural gas fired, 3×1 combined cycle, heat, and power cogeneration) facility in Hahnville, Louisiana. The proposed project uses a solvent-based absorption post-combustion carbon capture system that separates and prepares for storage up to three million tonnes of CO2 per… Continue reading Cypress Carbon Capture Project
The proposed project includes integrated CO2 capture and storage associated with cement manufacturing at the Ash Grove Foreman Cement Plant in Foreman, Arkansas. The proposed project includes Air Liquide’s CryocapTM technology as the basis for post-combustion and/or process system CO2 capture, and pipeline and storage field development in the Jurassic Smackover Formation. In May 2023,… Continue reading Ash Grove Foreman Cement Plant CCS
In May 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Energy Technology Laboratory gave a $17,7m award to University of Illinois’ Illinois Sustainable Technology Center at Prairie Research Institute under its CO2 Transport and Storage investments to complete site characterization efforts for the Cambrian Mt. Simon Sandstone/Eau Claire Formation storage complex, for storage of CO2 from… Continue reading Dallman Cambrian Mt. Simon Sandstone/Eau Claire Formation CO2 Storage Complex
In May 2023, the U.S. Department of Energy selected the University of Illinois’ Illinois Sustainable Technology Center at Prairie Research Institute for a project to conduct an integrated capture, transport, and geological storage study of CO2 emissions at Dallman Unit 4. DOE is allocating $4.7 million for this front-end engineering design study, which will explore… Continue reading CWLP Dallman Unit 4 200-MW CCS
