The technology employed by LCM represents the next generation of clean energy produced with carbon capture and sequestration (CCS). The Project will capture and permanently sequester in saline aquifer formations 1 million metric tons of CO2 per year.

Utilizing advanced technology, LCM will achieve a very high CO2 capture rate and produce Clean Hydrogen with a very low carbon intensity. LCM’s carbon intensity range is expected to be at the very bottom of the carbon intensity range for commercial-scale hydrogen production and significantly better than traditional technologies that do not incorporate CCS.

Carbon capture technology plays an enormously important role in helping to achieve the deep carbon reductions we need as our energy and industrial sectors transition to net-zero emissions
