The Department of Energy (DOE) supports carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies primarily through three programs: research and development support, demonstration project funding, and loan guarantees.

Research, Development and Demonstration

The DOE funds CCS Research, Development and Demonstration (RD&D) through the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM).  After the passage of the Infrastructure, Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA, P.L. 117-58), CCS demonstration programs are managed through the Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED), while the FECM continue to oversee other CCS research and development (R&D) activities. The DOE has funded CCS projects like FutureGen, Petra Nova, Archer Daniel Midlands, and others, though with limited success.
