As carbon management projects move from concept to development, one question is becoming increasingly urgent for policy makers, industry leaders, and communities alike: Where can carbon capture and storage be deployed most effectively, and what infrastructure will it require? Continue reading »
As of January 23, 2025, the unofficial pre-publication rules are no longer available to view online and have not been published in the Federal Register. As the rules were not finalized prior to the administration change, it is yet to be determined whether they will be published as-is or revised.
The US Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) has issued a notice of proposed rulemaking to enhance safety standards for carbon dioxide (CO2) pipelines. Given the important and complementary role that carbon management technologies will play in meeting net-zero emissions targets and the expected expansion of CO2 pipeline infrastructure, this notice is a welcome development for safe and responsible deployment. Continue reading »
While the spotlight on carbon management often falls on new capture technologies and storage facilities, a robust carbon dioxide (CO2) transport infrastructure is critical to achieving midcentury climate goals. An established CO2 transport infrastructure can help lower the financial risk of capture and storage projects and expand the number of opportunities for carbon management. Continue reading »
Carbon management and hydrogen technologies can help Pennsylvania meet its climate goals and allow its industries to reduce emissions while continuing to provide local jobs. Deploying these technologies requires careful consideration and examination of the commonwealth’s existing infrastructure, resources, and legislation.
The Great Plains Institute (GPI) recently worked with Team Pennsylvania to develop Successful Deployment of Carbon Management and Hydrogen Economies in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, a Road Map for Carbon Management and Hydrogen Development in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
