On October 21, 2024, announced more than $518 million to support 23 selected projects across 19 states that will fight climate change by developing the infrastructure needed for national decarbonization. The projects, funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, will provide for the development and validation of commercial large-scale carbon storage infrastructure to significantly and responsibly reduce carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from industrial operations and power plants, as well as from legacy emissions in the atmosphere, while supporting good jobs and environmental priorities in local communities. 

This funding is provided from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Section 40305. 

Selectees

Twenty-three projects were selected for negotiation to support the development of new and expanded commercial large-scale carbon storage projects with the capability to store 50 or more million metric tons of CO₂ over a 30-year period. All projects will support the Carbon Storage Assurance Facility Enterprise (CarbonSAFE) Initiative, managed by FECM, and focus on the detailed site characterization, planning, permitting, and construction stages of project development under CarbonSAFE.
