1. CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE FROM POWER PLANT

2. CARBON DIOXIDE CAPTURE FROM POWER PLANT
A major demonstration of a key technology to reduce greenhouse
gas emissions from power plants. Carbon dioxide captured from a
generating plant is being transported by project partners for
permanent, safe storage in a deep saline geologic formation.
Start-to-finish carbon capture and storage at Plant Barry in
Alabama. The facility is the largest in the world to be connected to a
pulverized coal-fired generating plant. Alabama Power and
Southern Company, along with the U.S. Department of
Energy, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd., the Electric Power
Research Institute and others, are partners in the project. In
2011, the project began capturing carbon dioxide. The carbon
dioxide will be supplied to the DOE's Southeast Regional Carbon
Sequestration Partnership and transported via pipeline to a site
about 10 miles away, where it will be permanently stored in a deep
geological formation.
