Carbon Sequestration [continued] Sample Clauses

Carbon Sequestration [continued]. Deep well injection of CO2 is one of several promising technologies for stabilizing atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations. It involves the capture and underground storage of CO2 from large emission sources such as power plants. To develop and research this technology, US DOE has selected seven regional partnerships nationwide. Region 5 is home to two of these partnerships, one of which, the Midwest Geological Sequestration Consortium (MGSC), is based in Illinois. The MGSC is working to assess the potential for geologic sequestration of CO2 in the Illinois Basin. The Illinois Basin underlies most of Illinois and extends into southwest Indiana and Northwest Kentucky. In Illinois, it comprises deeply buried unminable coal seams, depleted oil and gas reservoirs, and deep, brine-filled rock formations. It also comprises the Mt. Simon Sandstone formation which is anticipated to have major significance because of its very large expected capacity and its proximity to existing and planned coal-fired power plants. For these and other reasons, Illinois was to be the location of the nation’s first near zero-emissions fossil fuel fired power plant known as FutureGen, a federal initiative administered under the DOE and the FutureGen Alliance. The initial goal of FutureGen was to build the world's first integrated sequestration and hydrogen production research power plant. Final plans have yet to be finalized for this project, which was to be located in Illinois. While awaiting a final decision on whether to move forward with such a plant, the DOE restructured and expanded the goal to include other existing and proposed projects across the county. This expansion will involve an increased workload for the Illinois EPA as projects planned for Illinois get underway. Currently, there are already several CO2 injection projects in Illinois. The Illinois EPA recently permitted a Class I well for injection of supercritical carbon dioxide at the Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Midland Facility in Decatur, Illinois. This project is partially DOE funded and will provide crucial information about the suitability of the Mt. Simon Sandstone for CO2 storage by injecting and monitoring one million metric tons of CO2 over three years. In view of the importance of the carbon sequestration effort to both Illinois and the nation, Region 5 will provide the Illinois EPA with real-time, technical collaboration during the permitting process for CO2 injection xxxxx. As such, The Illinois EPA should continue ...
