Transcript Eliza Strickland: Technology to combat climate change got a big boost this year when the US Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act , which authorized more than 390 billion for spending on clean energy and climate change. One of the big winners was a technology called carbon capture and storage.

A field test conducted by a US Department of Energy (DOE) team of regional partners has demonstrated that using carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) in an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method dubbed “huff-and-puff” can help assess the carbon sequestration potential of geologic formations while tapping US oil resources.

The study judged that the potential CO 2 emissions reductions from low-carbon technologies within the next five years is “ quite low ” (around a 6% improvement), although in the longer term, i.e. between now and 2020, the potential CO 2 emissions reduction is much larger (up to 30% on a well-to-wheels basis).
