Carbon capture technology, aimed at reducing carbon dioxide emissions from power plants and industrial facilities, may see reduced federal support and enthusiasm under the Trump administration. Despite this, demand for the technology is expected to persist as utilities work towards meeting state-level climate change goals.
President Trump's energy policies, emphasizing fossil fuel extraction and withdrawal from the Paris agreement, have raised concerns about the future of carbon capture initiatives. The new energy secretary's focus on affordable and reliable energy sources has cast further doubt on the technology's prospects.
