"We all believe technology offers great promise to significantly reduce [greenhouse gas] emissions -- especially carbon capture, storage and sequestration technologies." President George W. Bush June 11, 2001 |
Key R&D Programs and Initiatives
The Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum DOE is working with the Department of State to organize an international ministerial-level panel that will meet regularly to discuss the growing body of scientific research and emerging technologies and plan joint projects for carbon sequestration. Read More >
Regional Sequestration Partnerships DOE has created a nationwide network of federal, state and private sector partnerships to determine the most suitable technologies, regulations, and infrastructure for future carbon capture, storage and sequestration in different areas of the country. Read More >
FutureGen Clean Coal Projects DOE aims to demonstrate cutting-edge carbon capture and storage technology at multiple commercial-scale integrated gasification combined-cycle plants. Once operational, each demonstration plant will sequester carbon dioxide at a rate of approximately one million tons per year. Read More >
Carbon Sequestration Core Program DOE's Fossil Energy program is developing a portfolio of technologies that can capture and permanently store greenhouse gases. Read more about DOE's sequestration R&D program by clicking on the following links:
