Aims to assess current gaps in CCS technologies and identify the most promising directions for basic research that is needed to achieve long-term global carbon management.
Provides a coordinated update of CCS potential across the United States and other portions of North America.
Best Practice Manuals focused on establishing uniform approaches for carrying out essential activities common to the success of all CCS projects, including site selection and characterization, monitoring, modeling, risk assessment, and more.
Surveys case studies of carbon capture at NGCC plants, including post-, pre-, and oxy-combustion, and their performance factors.
DOE’s 2017 report surveys existing and potential CCS infrastructure, state and federal incentives, and state and federal policy regarding pipelines and storage.
Energy analyses that provide input to decisions on issues such as national plans and programs, resource use, environmental and energy security policies, technology options for research and development programs, and paths to deployment.
Cover 43 US states and four Canadian provinces. Goal is to implement eight large-scale geologic storage and utilization projects in order to confirm that CO2 sequestration can be achieved safely, permanently, and economically.
Grants authority to adopt federal regulations, prescribing minimum standards for the construction, operation, and maintenance of pipeline facilities transporting natural and other flammable, toxic, or corrosive gas.
Reviewed relevant laws and regulations and interviewed federal officials, state officials from a nonprobability sample of 11 states, and representatives from natural gas industry associations and public interest groups.
Provides incentives for anaerobic digestion projects, including those targeted for pipeline injection, a use often excluded from state programs.
