This project is part of a broad study examining the viability of a regional commercial-scale geologic CO2 storage hub in the Southeastern U.S.

Key Points: 
  • This project is part of a broad study examining the viability of a regional commercial-scale geologic CO2 storage hub in the Southeastern U.S.
  • The project would represent a significant scale-up and is a natural progression in the maturation of carbon capture technology.
  • By bringing leadership, vision and experience based on its substantive learnings from both the fully integrated Boundary Dam 3 CCS Facility and its comprehensive second-generation CCS study ( Shand CCS Feasibility Study ), the Knowledge Centre is performing the carbon capture pre-feasibility study of the scenario.
  • The current pre-feasibility study to install post combustion CO2 capture on a Southern Company generating unit is part of the assessment required to confirm one of several point source emitters of CO2 for the storage site.
