Powering the path forward! Calpine’s Sutter Decarbonization Project, recently selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for a cost-sharing agreement, advances California towards a cleaner energy future. Upon completion, the project will capture up to 95% of existing carbon dioxide emissions from two turbines that produces 550MW of energy, enabling the facility to produce reliable, dispatchable, low-carbon electricity and providing energy. The Sutter Decarbonization Project will help California and the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) meet their clean energy goals while maintaining access to reliable energy. https://lnkd.in/eEHsPgXr
