🗣️ #ICYMI 📢 🌟 🌟 DOE Announces $54.4 Million to Expand Portfolio of Carbon Management Technologies to Reduce Carbon Emissions 🌟 🌟 📋 #FECM is making available up to $54.4 million in federal funding to advance diverse carbon management approaches that reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) pollution. 💰 The funding will support the development of technologies that capture CO2 from industrial and power generation sources or directly from the atmosphere and transport it either for permanent geologic storage or conversion into valuable products such as fuels and chemicals. 🌎 Investing in carbon management technologies will help address technical challenges and reduce costs to accelerate widespread deployment, crucial to advancing the Biden-Harris Administration’s goal of net-zero emissions economy-wide by 2050. 💡 Learn more and apply! ➡️ https://bit.ly/4dBN9xP #CarbonManagement

🗣️ ICYMI 📢 ✨ ✨ DOE Loan Programs Office Announces Conditional Commitment to Wabash Valley Resources to Repurpose Fossil Fuel Infrastructure to Produce Low-Carbon Ammonia for Midwest Farmers ✨ ✨ 📋 DOE's Loan Programs Office announced a conditional commitment for a loan guarantee of up to $1.559 billion to Wabash Valley Resources, LLC. The loan guarantee would help finance a commercial-scale waste-to-ammonia production facility using carbon capture and storage technology in West Terre Haute, Indiana. 🥇 The project will have the potential to be the world’s first, carbon-negative ammonia production facility—underscoring the Biden-Harris Administration's continued commitment to ensuring the United States leads the world in clean energy manufacturing. 🌎 Ammonia-based fertilizer is a crucial element of the U.S. agricultural system, but its production is a significant contributor to climate change. Globally, ammonia manufacturing accounts for 1% to 2% of all CO2 emissions. By producing low-carbon ammonia and permanently storing 1.6 million metric tonnes of CO2 annually, Wabash Valley Resources would contribute to the United States’ efforts to reduce its agricultural industry’s emissions. 🏗️ The project is expected to create 500 construction jobs and 125 operations jobs. 💡 Learn more ➡️ https://bit.ly/3N3XXJj
