Which plants nearby cannot move and cannot electrify their emissions away, and are ready to commit for the long term.
Anyone can point at a map and say the rock looks promising. The hard part, and the part that decides whether a project exists at all, is finding the places where an emitter that needs storage, a geology that can hold it, and a community that wants it are the same place.
Which plants nearby cannot move and cannot electrify their emissions away, and are ready to commit for the long term.
Where the subsurface has both a reservoir that can take the volume and a seal that can be proven to hold it.
Where local authorities, neighbours and other industries see the project as something they want next to them.
A perfect reservoir under a town that does not want it is not a site. Nor is an enthusiastic emitter sitting on rock that cannot hold anything. Screening is where we say no, cheaply, so that the money goes into the prospects that survive all three.
