Washington — As part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced $251 million to support 12 selected projects across seven states that will bolster the nation’s carbon management capabilities.
A team of NETL researchers led by environmental sustainability expert Mark McKoy participated in the Carbon, Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) conference April 25–27 at the University of Houston in Texas.
McKoy and a team of experts addressed the Laboratory’s key research on point source carbon capture, CO2 removal, CO2 conversion into products, reliable CO2 storage, blue hydrogen production, and critical mineral production from industrial and mining waste.
NETL has launched a new data portal that provides information needed to accelerate the process of completing federal drilling permit applications to sequester carbon dioxide (CO2), a greenhouse gas, in the subsurface.
A land-use effort between NETL and the City of Morgantown will offer hikers and bikers a greenway connection to the Mon River Rail-Trail System using NETL property along West Run.
The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) is implementing the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) Section 40305 (Carbon Storage Validation and Testing) through its CarbonSAFE Initiative — the agency’s flagship effort to move carbon storage technologies into geographically widespread commercial practice. Federal funding for the CarbonSAFE Initiative is being provided through Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) DE-FOA-0002711.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced $131 million for 33 research and development projects to advance the wide-scale deployment of carbon management technologies to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) pollution. The projects will address technical challenges of capturing CO2 from power plants and industrial facilities or directly from the atmosphere and assess potential CO2 storage sites, increasing the number of sites progressing toward commercial operations.
WASHINGTON, D.C. — The U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) and the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) today announced $20 million in funding for projects that will improve stakeholder access to region-specific information and technical assistance regarding the commercial deployment of carbon capture, transport, conversion, and storage technologies across the United States.
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Energy released a Request for Information yesterday to obtain input on the best approaches and options for developing field laboratories, whether at Carbon Storage Assurance Facility Enterprise (CarbonSAFE) initiative project sites or other sites. NETL is collecting the responses to the request for information.
NETL researchers Robert Dilmore, Ph.D., and Dustin Crandall, Ph.D., joined carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) experts from government, industry and academia to discuss necessary technical advancements required for safe and permanent storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) at basin scale during a meeting hosted by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
A new NETL fact sheet summarizes a growing portfolio of research activity by its Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) Program that is integral to U.S. efforts to achieve a net-zero carbon economy by 2050.
