Geologic (Subsurface) carbon sequestration is a powerful climate solution that allows us to dispose of carbon dioxide (CO₂) deep underground, keeping it out of the atmosphere for thousands of years.

Class II vs. Class VI Wells: Understanding Carbon Sequestration Pathways

Carbon sequestration is a critical strategy in the fight against climate change, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulates underground injection wellsll begins with an idea.

How Long Does It Take to Get a Class VI Permit?

Class VI permits are essential for geologic CO₂ storage, but the timeline can vary widely depending on who’s in charge. Faster permitting accelerates climate action and project development.

What Is State Primacy in EPA Class VI Permitting?

State primacy allows states to take the lead in regulating underground CO₂ injection wells, streamlining the permitting process. These projects are reducing emissions, creating jobs, and advancing clean energy infrastructure.

Where Are Carbon Sequestration Projects Happening in the U.S. and Canada?

Carbon sequestration is gaining momentum across North America, with major projects underway in both the U.S. and Canada. These projects are reducing emissions, creating jobs, and advancing clean energy infrastructure.
