Can natural gas-fired power generation be part of a low-carbon future? As electricity demand accelerates—driven by AI, industrial growth, and electrification—natural gas remains a key part of the energy landscape. Reducing its emissions is critical to meeting climate goals while ensuring reliable power at scale. Carbon capture can lower CO? emissions from natural gas-fired power by up to 95%, offering a proven solution for low-emissions electricity. With new power plants facing long lead times, capture-ready facilities provide a faster, more scalable path to decarbonization. Our latest whitepaper dives into the opportunities and challenges of carbon capture for natural gas, from infrastructure and sequestration to regulatory considerations shaping the future of energy. ??

The voluntary carbon market (VCM) remains resilient despite shifting US federal policy. While the Trump Administration rolls back climate initiatives, bipartisan tax incentives, strong state leadership, and global action continue to drive carbon market growth. Need-to-know facts from our latest blog include: ? The VCM operates independently of government mandates. ? State-led policies in CA, MA & WA are strengthening carbon regulations. ? The EU, Brazil, Japan & South Korea are advancing carbon market policies.
