For more than a century, Louisiana’s energy industry has led the way in innovation. Louisiana has an opportunity to capitalize on changing marketplace demands by utilizing carbon capture and storage, or CCS, and leading the future of energy.
In today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is more than just a buzzword—it’s a critical component of our future. As the chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, I am dedicated to ensuring a positive economic impact in our state.
We are excited to share a significant milestone in the development of Live Oak CCS Hub. Last week, we submitted our Class VI application to the Louisiana Department of Energy and Natural Resources (DENR). This innovative CCS project aims to reduce carbon emissions throughout the Capital Region.
As we continue to develop the Live Oak CCS Hub in Louisiana, our team is excited to share some updates about the project. To better understand the impact that Live Oak CCS Hub will have on the region, we have commissioned an economic impact analysis from Dr. Loren Scott in Baton Rouge.
A new carbon capture and storage project—the Live Oak CCS Hub—has been proposed for Iberville and West Baton Rouge parishes. The project is being advanced by Tenaska Development, an arm of Tenaska, an energy company headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska.
