Jobs and Economic Impact of Carbon Capture Deployment in Texas
Texas has the opportunity to create an annual average of up to 18,350 project jobs over a 15-year period and 9,230 ongoing operations jobs through the deployment of carbon capture at 95 industrial and power facilities. The retrofit of equipment at these facilities has the potential to capture nearly 161 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year. Along with the development of CO 2 transport infrastructure, this would generate up to $59.9 billion in private investment.
