BEST PRACTICES: Site Screening, Site Selection, and Site Characterization for Geologic Storage Projects DOE/NETL-2017/1844 June 2017 National Energy Technology Laboratory www.netl.doe.gov Geologic Storage of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) has gained recognition in recent years as a necessary technology approach for ensure environmental sustainability by reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Fossil Energy’s (FE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) are developing technologies that will enable widespread commercial deployment of geologic storage of CO2 by 2025-2035.
