MIDWEST REGIONAL CO2 SEQUESTRATION PARTNERSHIP

The MRCSP has been established to assess the technical potential, economic viability, and public acceptability of carbon sequestration within its region.   It is one of seven regional partnerships established by the DOE across the U.S. as part of an overall DOE strategy to develop robust cost-effective options for mitigating CO2 emissions that contribute to climate change.   

The MRCSP region consists of seven contiguous states: Indiana , Kentucky , Maryland , Michigan , Ohio , Pennsylvania , and West Virginia .   A group of leading universities, state geological surveys, nongovernmental organizations and private companies, led by Battelle, has been assembled to carry out this important research.
