CO₂ Storage Identification

Deciding where to inject CO₂ is not simple! Saline aquifers are a primary geologic formation under consideration for CO₂ sequestration, but the cost and capacity of storing CO₂ in these rocks are dependent on the geology, which is always uncertain. Further, the geology of these resources also varies geospatially, so the cost and capacity of CO₂ sequestration sites can vary substantially from one location to another across the country. Last, knowledge of the lowest-cost CO₂ sequestration locations is alone insufficient because the CO₂ sources, CO₂ transportation network, and existing energy infrastructure (e.g., transmission lines if the source is a power plant) can all also influence the targeted sequestration location. Carbon Solutions LLC tools offer the capability of identifying and quantifying these factors. For example, our 𝘚𝘊𝘖₂𝘛ᴾᴿᴼ tool is built to estimate the cost and capacity of CO₂ storage across the country. And when combined with our 𝘕𝘐𝘊𝘖₂𝘓𝘌ᴾᴿᴼ and 𝘚𝘪𝘮𝘊𝘊𝘚ᴾᴿᴼ tools, we provide a robust and science-based guidance on where to inject CO₂.
