Developing a commercial carbon storage hub for Southern Colorado

Project Eos will explore the potential of developing a carbon storage hub for the Pueblo, Colorado area to reduce industrial emissions from cement, steel and power plant operations.

Colorado School of Mines, Carbon America and Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) were selected for $32.6 million in funding for Project Eos from the U.S. Department of Energy’s CarbonSAFE initiative.

Project Eos was one of nine projects selected by DOE as part of a $242 million nationwide investment to accelerate the development of large-scale, commercial carbon storage projects with capacities to securely store 50 or more million metric tons of carbon dioxide deep underground.
