This $11,247,972 Cooperative Agreement, awarded by the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (CFDA 81.089 - Fossil Energy Research and Development), will fund a feasibility assessment for an integrated carbon capture and storage (CCS) project at a site in Carbon County, Wyoming.
The project, led by the University of Wyoming's Sponsored Programs, will evaluate the technical and non-technical aspects of the planned CCS facility near the Echo Springs Gas Plant. Key tasks include data gathering, permit application, risk analysis, and preparation of documents and reports to support the development of a UIC Class VI permit for CO2 injection. Additionally, the project will explore the potential for future CCS expansion and benefits to the local community. A sub-award to Williams Field Services Group, LLC will support the physical fieldwork of drilling at the site.
This award demonstrates the Department of Energy's commitment to advancing clean energy technologies and reducing greenhouse gas emissions through innovative CCS research and development projects.
