(ITC). Many of Wyoming&#039;s leaders believe carbon capture will be key to preserving the struggling coal industry, which is being squeezed out of the electricity market by lower-emissions and increasingly affordable alternatives.

But the establishment that began to take shape almost ten years ago under the then-Gov. Matt Mead - is one of the few places in the world where researchers can test projects that have worked well in the lab but are not yet mature enough to be installed in a power plant.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Nicole Pollack)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A carbon capture test site built at a Wyoming coal-fired power plant in 2018 is finally ready to bring a pair of promising technologies from the lab to market.
