As carbon management grows as a critical tool for climate action, federal strategies and state legislation are evolving to promote efficient and responsible development of carbon capture projects and carbon dioxide (CO2) pipelines. However, ongoing opposition and legal challenges, particularly concerning the use of eminent domain, reflect the complexities the industry must navigate to fully emerge. Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) involves the capture of CO2 from the emissions of industrial processes before they are released into the atmosphere for storage in subsurface geological formations.
The growing interest in carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects to address atmospheric emissions has drawn attention to the crucial role of pipelines in transporting carbon dioxide (CO2) to sequestration sites, highlighting concerns over safety issues. CCS involves the capture of CO2 from the…Read the full report …...

The Biden administration has made significant strides in climate change action, particularly through the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA), which represents the single largest investment in climate and energy in the U.S. Actions to further the administration’s climate agenda include proposals to limit emissions from power plants and vehicles, finalizing methane emission rules, and advancing environmental justice.
The growing interest in carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) projects driven by supportive policies and tax incentives has prompted state efforts to streamline permitting requirements, including securing primacy to regulate Class VI injection wells to sequester carbon dioxide. CCS involves the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants or industrial processes before they are released into the atmosphere for storage in subsurface geological formations.

Carbon management is emerging as an important component of regulatory strategies to progress towards a net-zero economy. Recent actions range from funding for the first direct air capture facilities to establishing an action committee to advance marine carbon dioxide (CO2) removal.
The deployment of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technologies is expected to increase in the U.S., driven by federal and state initiatives to meet emissions reduction targets. Supportive policies, including $12 billion in funding from the…Read the full report …...
