Description (excerpt):
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is critical in meeting U.S. decarbonization goals. Recently, tax incentives and federal grants have spurred interest in CCS resulting in dozens of projects in various stages of development across the country. The federal government has created metrics to measure which communities have been historically disadvantaged or overburdened by pollution and has made efforts to not unnecessarily harm these communities as CCS is deployed at scale.
