Time’s Ticking: Embarking on the Wyoming Trails Carbon Hub (WyoTCH)

Project WyoTCH—the Wyoming Trails Carbon Hub (WyoTCH, pronounced “Watch”)—is a pioneering open-access carbon hub designed to ensure that no captured CO₂ is left stranded. The initiative will develop a comprehensive Roadmap that serves both as a strategic blueprint for the commercial development of the hub and as a national model for establishing similar hubs elsewhere. WyoTCH is set to become the largest carbon management hub in the world, integrating CO₂ capture, transportation, and storage across Wyoming. Phase I aims to manage between 10 and 25 million tonnes of CO₂ per year from 30 facilities in southern Wyoming within its first five years of operation. Phase II will scale the project up to 45 million tonnes per year from approximately 60 facilities statewide within a decade.
