Abigail is a superstar: excellent in everything she does. An incredibly well-deserved honor for someone who makes decarbonizing steel and cement look easy. Congratulations Abigail Regitsky!

This absolutely should not happen under the current proposal.

We cannot allow the hand waving conversion of oil and gas fields to storage projects.

We don’t do it onshore. We need tight rules and regulations before we allow it anywhere.

Inside the beltway content but my boss Abigail Regitsky was just named as one of Washingtonian 🌸 most influential people!

Which is true and correct, she’s the best in the biz

I agree with this.

However, we will need a robust & continuous demonstration that new CCS projects hit performance benchmarks (e.g., capture rates) as a condition of future support.

Otherwise, policy support will quickly become policy boondoggles. E.g., Ethanol subsidies.

This whole thread is a great example of how this site can be used to learn.

I’m no technical expert but the plenty of folks on here are

This is a fantastic graph

But it doesn't really matter unless the projects are built. We need long term, predictable policy support if CCS is ever going to 'meet expectations'

A cool 6x capacity increase isn't enough

Gas power CCS project is cancelled, but why?

“The company says it has decided the project is technically viable but not economically feasible.”

The future of CCS is a policy choice, not a technical one.

Louisiana is working on a comprehensive subsurface legal regime that would protect landowners, and communities all while not slowing the deployment of CO2 storage.

It can be done. We can build safely, and communities can benefit.

And we will!

The work Omar and the team Vaulted Deep is beautiful marriage of CDR and waste management.

Congratulations on the deliveries and purchase from Frontier.

Carbon removal is real and it can deliver co-benefits.

In this case, carbon removal is managing waste that is often disposed of by polluting already disadvantaged communities.

Thrilled to be a customer of Vaulted Deep!

For all my subsurface law nerds you should read this latest article from Tara Righetti

'The United States is on the cusp of a land rush for sequestration rights'

The US is endowed with fantastic pore space, we should get paid to use it!

The recent 'report' out of oil and gas watch was either intentionally misleading, or poorly researched.

Either way it's disappointing to see.

I'm glad Holly is out here to set the record straight.

climate advocates are sharing a story about this plant's 'failure to capture 90% of emissions'
what's missing?

1) EPA permits are just for~1/4 of its emissions
2) emissions high b/c there's a 335MW coal plant on site; the current CO2 capture is on the ethanol fermentation part

The next generation of carbon credits are high quality and scientifically rigorous

It’s great to see Isometric and Frontier partnering to bring quality removals to market

I wrote something for Mr. Porter about the 'I hate menswear' essay that went viral a few weeks ago. My argument: there has never been a better time to develop personal style. Today is the best time in menswear, and tomorrow will be better still.

Federal land will be needed for carbon sequestration, but how much should developers pay for it? New work with Madeleine J. Lewis, forthcoming in Boston University Law Review.

It’s World Intellectual Property Day if you even care

If the new EPA power plant rules stand up to legal battles, it's truly a put up or shut up moment for CCS in the US power sector

Can it be clean and firm?

Evergreen, NetPower looks great if they can scale.
