The Wyoming Rock Springs Uplift could potentially store 14 to 17 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2), according to results from a Department of Energy-sponsored study. The results could also lay the groundwork for a future large-scale carbon capture and storage project in Wyoming.

A US Department of Energy/National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) team of regional partners has begun injecting CO 2 into a deep lignite coal seam in Burke County, North Dakota, to demonstrate the economic and environmental viability of geologic CO 2 storage in the US Great Plains region. In collaboration with Eagle Operating Inc.,

In terms of per capita emissions, the top emitter was Wyoming (118.5 For example, some states are located near abundant hydroelectric supplies, while others contain abundant coal resources. Topping the list for absolute emissions in 2010 was Texas (652.6 million tonnes CO 2 ); California (369.8 mt CO 2 ); and Pennsylvania (256.6

Coal supplies nearly 50% of domestic electricity. In order for low-cost electricity from coal-fired power plants to remain available, the DOE said, economical methods for capturing and storing the greenhouse gas emissions from these plants must be developed.

Globally, the transportation sector contributes about 25% of all CO2 emissions. In the US, 36% of electricity is generated using renewables, including wind, solar, and hydropower, as well as non-CO2-emitting nuclear power. An additional 35% is from natural gas, which emits the least CO2 of any fossil fuel.

Geologic storage is currently focused on five types of formations:(1) depleted oil and gas reservoirs, (2) deep saline formations, (3) unmineable coal seams, (4) oil- and gas-rich organic shales, and (5) basalts. The outcome of this project will be a geologically grounded method for quantifying the extent of such trapping.
