The Carbon Capture Demonstrations Projects aim to increase U.S. manufacturing competitiveness in the global transition to a clean energy economy by demonstrating commercial-scale carbon capture technologies, pipeline transportation, and geologic storage infrastructure.
Funding for this program will support six facilities to capture carbon dioxide from coal electric generation facilities (two projects), natural gas electric generation facilities (two projects), and industrial facilities (two projects).
Large-scale deployment of carbon management technologies is critical to addressing the climate crisis. Reaching our nation’s energy transition goals will require capturing and sequestering 400 to 1,800 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually by 2050. Commercial demonstration of advanced carbon capture technologies integrated, with reliable transportation and storage infrastructure, will be required for the widespread deployment of these carbon management technologies.
The Carbon Capture Demonstrations Projects focus on integrated carbon capture, transport, and storage technologies and infrastructure that can be readily replicated and deployed at power plants and major industrial sources of carbon emissions, such as cement, pulp and paper, iron, and steel.
Eligible Uses
Eligible applicants include institutions of higher education, non-profit entities, for-profit entities, tribal nations, state and local governmental entities, incorporated consortia, and unincorporated consortia. Download the full funding opportunity for more information on eligibility.
