Cascadia Basin off coast of B.C. has huge sequestration potential
One of the challenges with carbon capture and sequestration is that once you’ve captured the CO2, you need a place to put it – permanently.
A recent milestone in the Solid Carbon project was reached with the publication of a study by University of Calgary scientists that demonstrates the porous basalt in the Cascadia Basin is ideal for CO2 sequestration, because any CO2 pumped into the basalt would be permanently sequestered. The site 300 kilometres off the coast of Vancouver Island was chosen, Moran said, because “it’s the best characterized basalt location on the planet.”
All of the technology needed for Solid Carbon’s negative emissions project are available. The one thing missing right now is a value proposition.
