Geologic Storage is Permanent: An FAQ with Bruce Hill
Carbon capture technologies are essential tools to reduce today’s industrial CO₂ emissions, providing a transition pathway from fossil fuels to zero-carbon energy alternatives being developed today as well as to remove CO₂ directly from the atmosphere. In order for carbon capture to be effective, storage of those captured emissions must…

In a Reversal, EPA Maintains Standard for Coal-Fired Power Plants Based on CCS
Yet, in a last-minute attempt to protect industry, says power plants are the only sources whose climate emissions can be regulated. After proposing to repeal the first ever U.S. greenhouse gas standards issued in 2015 for coal-fired power plants – which are based on partial carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) – EPA decided…
