Leaders from Tenaska were in Mobile on Friday to announce the Longleaf CCS Hub, which officials say will safely store carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes.

) - One of the largest energy companies in the U.S. has announced a carbon capture and storage project coming to Mobile County.

Leaders from Tenaska were in Mobile on Friday to announce the Longleaf CCS Hub, which officials say will safely store carbon dioxide emissions from industrial processes, preventing them from entering the atmosphere. “A big one here is the removal of CO2. So, any company that is interested in reducing their carbon dioxide emissions, this project facilitates that. So, you can control your industrial facility and remove CO2, which you need somewhere to store it long-term and durably. So, we provide that service,” said Tenaska Vice President of Development Bret Estep.

“That’s a direct benefit to those companies that have that goal. A broader benefit to the community is those industries that want to do that, whether they want to do it for their own reasons or for regulatory reasons. We give them the tools necessary to be able to stay in business,” Estep said. The Longleaf CCS Hub serves as not only a significant environmental initiative, but also is expected to bring considerable economic benefits to the region.
