ALJ Group has created the\u00a0American Carbon Capture Forum, following a successful event series for hydrogen and LNG. The new carbon capture forum\u2019s inaugural meeting brought together industry experts on policy, funding, technology, and project execution.<\/p>\n

Princeton University\u2019s Net Zero America report expects carbon sequestration in the United States to increase to 1.5 gigatons by 2050 in a low electrification scenario and reach about one gigaton by 2050 in a high electrification scenario.<\/p>\n

Todd Bush, the chairman of the event, opened the conference by stating: \u201cIn order to reach our net zero goals, we must get to gigaton scale for carbon capture. That is one billion metric tons of carbon sequestered per year. The United States and Canada have had the most success with carbon capture and storage with more demonstrations, more pilots, and more operational facilities to draw on lessons learned.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Decarbonfuse data, there are\u00a075 projects in North America under development\u00a0including direct air capture, carbon sequestration, and blue hydrogen projects. Many of these projects expect to be operational in 2024 to 2026 presenting potential supply chain constraints for the industry.<\/p>\n

Key points during the American Carbon Capture Forum were regulatory permitting, supply chain, and staffing challenges that face the industry:<\/p>\n
