World’s largest carbon capture and storage project underway

GOLDFIELD — As a producer of clean, renewable energy, Corn, LP is partnering with Summit Carbon Solutions to make a clean energy source even more environmentally friendly,

The partnership, announced Thursday, will allow 200,000 tons of carbon dioxide to be captured, transported and deposited deep underground through Summit Carbon Solutions’ transportation and storage platform annually.

When fully developed, Summit Carbon Solutions will have an infrastructure network capable of capturing and permanently storing more than 10 million tons of carbon dioxide annually, which is equivalent to taking 2 million cars off the road per year.

“Creating an environmentally-friendly energy source has always been a top priority for our company,” said Chris Boshart, GM/CEO. “We are proud to join with Summit Carbon Solutions on this transformational project so we can continue to create clean, safe, affordable energy for rapidly growing low-carbon fuel markets.”

“We are grateful to be able to partner with Corn, LP on this project,” said Bruce Rastetter, CEO of Summit Agricultural Group. Corn, LP joins a progressive group of partner plants that are focused on lowering their carbon footprint in a safe, economical way.”
