Wyoming Governor Mark Gorden writes in The Hill about the benefits of carbon capture and storage (CCUS).
- Policies that aim to eliminate fossil fuels would inflate costs for consumers, limit energy development in emerging economies, and increase emissions globally.
- To reduce emissions and grow its economy, Wyoming has embraced carbon capture and storage (CCUS). In fact, the state is home to the largest CCUS plant in the world.
- The world needs innovative solutions to meet the world’s energy and economic needs while reaching a low-carbon economy—Wyoming has embraced such a solution in CCUS.
“Americans rely on energy every day to make our way of life possible.

It would be my honor to show you what Wyoming is doing to be a leader on this front.”
