Tenaska is considering development of a carbon capture and storage (CCS) project named Hawthorn CCS Hub in Creek County. Our team is talking with local landowners about potential leasing opportunities and with regional businesses about their carbon reduction challenges.
CCS helps manufacturers and industrial producers meet emissions requirements in a cost-effective and responsible manner by capturing carbon dioxide (CO2), transporting it, and storing it deep underground. This allows businesses to remain stable employers and taxpayers.
Our approach is relationship driven. We know your land is your livelihood, and Tenaska wants to work with landowners to develop a safe and environmentally responsible project that benefits you and your community.
80,000 Acres of Pore Space Needed
6 - 10 Above-Ground Injection Wells
35 Years of Tenaska Energy
CO2 is captured at the point of emission, such as ethanol plants, agribusiness, natural gas processing plants, steel processing and other facilities, or through direct air capture, rather than being released into the atmosphere. The CO2 is then processed and compressed into a liquid.
The captured CO2 is liquefied and transported. A high-strength carbon steel pipeline system safely delivers the liquefied CO2 to a storage site. After storage, the CO2 then naturally mineralizes and dissolves over time.
The liquified CO2 is injected deep underground, where it is stored in porous rock and sealed beneath a thick layer of impermeable caprock. The CO2 then naturally mineralizes and dissolves over time.
We know your land is your livelihood, whether you use it for farming, ranching, recreation, leasing or other purposes. We aim to be a good steward of this land, support its long-term preservation and provide an added source of income for your family over the next 20+ years.
