Carbon Capture & Storage Summit

June 10-12, 2024 ~ Minneapolis, MNCo-located with the International Fuel Ethanol Workshop & ExpoCapturing and storing carbon dioxide in underground wells has the potential to become the most consequential technological deployment in the history of the broader biofuels industry. Deploying effective carbon capture and storage at biofuels plants will cement ethanol and biodiesel as the lowest carbon liquid fuels commercially available in the marketplace. The Carbon Capture & Storage Summit will offer attendees a comprehensive look at the economics of carbon capture and storage, the infrastructure required to make it possible and the financial and marketplace impacts to participating producers.

Carbon Capture & Storage Summit An Exploration of the Methodologies for Determining Well Site Viability for CCS Projects
Room 208CD - (8:30 am - 10:00 am)
Read Description Any carbon capture and storage project will ultimately require a Class VI underground storage permit, demonstrating that a selected well-site is capable of adequately storing the planned for inventories of CO2. The presentations in this panel will outline the utility of publicly available geographic data and the options available to project developers should that data not be sufficient. The value and cost of site specific test wells will be articulated along with a rubric for determining when a more involved test well is likely to be necessary in a project’s Class VI permit application.
Moderator: Michael Hillix, Principal Geoscientist and Energy Advisor, Univ. of North Dakota Energy & Environmental Research Center - Dylan Hart, CCS Subsurface Solutions Lead, Black & Veatch Corp.
Site Screening for Carbon Sequestration Injection Wells - Kellyn Modlin, Project Comptroller, SCS Engineers

Carbon Capture & Storage Summit Lessons Learned: What the First CCS Projects Can Teach Developers About Project Feasibility, Pathway Verification and Monitoring/Reporting/Verification
Room 208CD - (10:30 am - 12:00 pm)
Read Description
This panel will leverage the experience of the assembled speakers to offer an ‘eyes wide-open’ look at the critical development steps to inform a project’s go/no-go determination. The presentations offer a blend of considerations connected to pathway verification, voluntary carbon market modeling, test wells and strategic community engagement. These presentations will demonstrate that while the requirements may at first seem incredibly daunting, a step-wise approach made by engaging experienced providers can successfully de-risk these projects and hasten the advent of their game-changing economic benefits.

Carbon Capture & Storage Summit
Important Measurement and Monitoring Considerations for CCS Project Developers
Room 208CD - (1:00 pm - 2:30 pm)
Read Description At face value, sequestering industrial carbon dioxide streams underground is the kind of transformative technology required to decarbonize our energy infrastructure. Regulatory agencies, low-carbon fuel markets and the general public however, take nothing at face value. The presentations in this panel will offer to attendees the means available to demonstrate the effective and safe sequestration of carbon dioxide streams. Project developers are urged to give consideration to these requirements early in the project as the deployment of these solutions once a project has been built is more difficult if not impossible.

Carbon Capture & Storage Summit Ducks in a Row: The Critical Importance of a Well-Coordinated Permitting Strategy in CCS Project Development
Room 208CD - (3:00 pm - 4:30 pm)
Read Description It could absolutely be argued that the level of difficulty in obtaining a Class VI underground injection well could be the highest the biofuels sector has seen to date. Applications regularly reach to 500 pages and draw on a diverse mix of geological, hydrological and environmental expertise that will require producers to engage a qualified team of outside counsel. This panel is populated with experts have trod the pathway to successful permit applications, bushwhacking their way forward. Their hard-earned lessons learned will serve as the foundation to this insightful discussion.
