8 Rivers

Attending the Direct Air Capture Coalition’s Global Direct Air Capture Conference this week in NYC? Look for 8 Rivers’ Will Bernholz! #GDACC2025

??8 Rivers news! ?? Together with our partners at Rocky Mountain Power, we’ve received $1.5M in funding from Wyoming Energy Authority’s Energy Matching Funds program to support a planned carbon capture project. This project will deploy 8 Rivers’ proprietary Allam-Fetvedt Cycle (AFC) power cycle technology with inherent carbon capture at an existing RMP brownfield power plant site in Wyoming. This project will: ??Inherently capture 97-99% of carbon emissions, leading to better air quality for Wyoming residents ??Enable Wyoming to use its coal reserves in a cleaner and more efficient manner ??Provide high paying job opportunities for Wyoming residents Read more in today’s blog post ??

Shared some thoughts on my walk to CERAWeek this morning. - the global energy leaders showed up in force this week. It was a real who’s who of top CEOs and gov’t officials. ?? - everyone is asking themselves and each other about the ways we need to adjust our approaches under the new administration and regulatory environment. ?? - there is still major progress being made on decarbonization, and real impact shown by groups like Environmental Defense Fund and the work of GHGSAT and MethaneSAT. ??? And my feet hurt! Definitely hitting those 10k steps goals.

???Just announced at CERAWeek: 8 Rivers has awarded Wood an agreement for the preliminary front end engineering and design (Pre-FEED) activities at a jointly-developed Wyoming carbon capture project with PacifiCorp. This project will deploy our proprietary Allam-Fetvedt Cycle (AFC) power cycle technology and direct-fired supercritical CO2 turbines we’re developing with Siemens Energy. We’re excited to be working with Wood and Siemens Energy to deploy cutting-edge innovations that will enhance efficiency, create high-quality jobs, and drive long-term growth across Wyoming and beyond!

Increasing energy demand and aging infrastructure pose a major challenge for energy leaders. A recent webinar by Reuters discussed how innovation, collaboration, and a clear transition strategy are key to ensuring secure, reliable, and clean energy in the Intelligent Age?? Solving this challenge requires leveraging industry partnerships and innovating upon existing commercial processes. Technologies like the Allam-Fetvedt cycle and 8RH2 represent scalable, affordable solutions that can be deployed across heavy industries to support energy security and decarbonization goals. We’re proud to be working with strategic partners like Siemens Energy and ENEOS Xplora to commercialize sustainable infrastructure innovations that are ready to compete in a diverse energy mix.

The 8 Rivers team gathered to mark #InternationalWomensDay at our Durham, NC headquarters yesterday! Across the global energy industry, women have overcome barriers and challenges to make tremendous contributions that shape innovation, drive success, and strengthen our collective impact each day.?This was a great opportunity to reflect on progress and recognize the achievements and resilience of women on the 8 Rivers team and across the world. ??Coley Catalano, Meg Manlove, Lauren Wood Walsh, and Kaitlin Harrington - just a few of the women driving innovation and progress on the 8 Rivers team! #IWD2025 #AccelerateAction

Attending BBI International’s 2025 International Biomass Conference & Expo later this month in Atlanta? Be sure to catch 8 Rivers’ VP of Business Development Nicholas Borisow in a discussion about how 8RH2 could play a key role in enabling greater deployment of sustainable aviation fuel, reduce the levelized cost of production, and eliminate over 70% of commercial aviation emissions. Message Nicholas if you’d like to meet up at the show and learn more about the value ultra-low-carbon hydrogen production will bring to aviation and other heavy industries.?

Per Rhodium Group and MIT - Center for Energy and Environmental Policy Research’s Clean Investment Monitor, carbon management projects attracted nearly $1.76 billion in total investments in 2024– that’s more than double what we saw in 2023. (Source: https://lnkd.in/eD3_ewHz) Emphasizing the economic and energy security advantages of carbon management technologies will be essential to drive continued private sector investment and move projects from pilot to commercial scale this decade. As we bring our Calcite DAC platform to market, 8 Rivers is working with communities and developers to ensure these benefits are top of mind.

We’re excited to attend CERAWeek 2025! Last year, 8 Rivers SVP of Capital Management Mike Adams spoke about how the importance of investments into FOAK decarbonization technologies, like our 8RH2 hydrogen production platform: "If you're going to build infrastructure-scale technologies, you're going to need infrastructure-scale capital." ??Watch Mike’s talk below??and reach out if you’d like to meet with us during #CERAWeek2025

We are proud to be members of the Carbon Capture Coalition and to highlight their 2025 Federal Policy Blueprint outlining the full suite of #CarbonManagement policies we and the other 100+ members of the Coalition support: https://lnkd.in/eZqtkdvk Policies that catalyze investments and demand for emerging carbon management technologies - like 8 Rivers' Calcite - are the driving force behind many federal, local, and corporate decarbonization initiatives and can bolster job creation and economic development across the country.
