CCUS: A State Comparison of Technical and Policy Issues
October 26, 2021
The United States Energy Association (USEA) is releasing the Cadmus/USEA study “Carbon Capture, Utilization, & Sequestration: A State Comparison of Technical and Policy Issues.” This study evaluates laws, policies, and regulations governing CO2 storage operations and geologic storage across ten states including Alabama, California, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Utah. In addition to providing oversight of the storage capacity and pipeline infrastructure of these states, this project provides a comprehensive and comparative analysis of four dimensions of CO2 law, regulation, and policy: land use, mineral, water, and pore space rights; geologic CO2 storage and incremental storage regulation; eminent domain; and regulation of CO2-EOR, oil and gas activities, and CO2 pipelines.
Cadmus’ Shari Ring, one of the study authors, will be presenting the findings at a USEA-hosted webinar on Tuesday, October 26, 2021, from 2:30-3:30 ET. Click here to learn more and register for the event on the USEA website: https://usea.org/event/ccus-state-comparison-technical-and-policy-issues
