Description
Commercial CO2 storage in Utah’s Uinta Basin
University of Utah intends to establish the feasibility of commercial CO2 storage in Utah’s Uinta Basin with high-resolution societal analysis, geological characterization data, technical analysis, economic evaluation, and environmental analysis. This project intends to accelerate Deseret Power’s assessment of commercial-scale CO2 capture, combine additional CO2 sources in the area for storage hub development, and accelerate economic transition and growth in the communities that have historically been impacted by fossil fuel production.
