In order to decarbonize electricity, reducing carbon intensity of electrical power generation will not allow the goals to be met. Carbon capture from flue gases will be required to meet the current total emission reduction goals. Geological storage and monitoring of purified carbon dioxide from flue gases has proven infeasible and to have limited geographic applications. Carbon capture and re-ulilization for applications in the built environment such as carbonate cements and aggregates, especially for roadways, promises to be the most available method of large scale carbon dioxide capture, and is both economically and technically sustainable. Collaboration between CARB and CalTrans could forge a link between emission reduction goals and re-utilization of carbon dioxide from emitters for carbonate cement and aggregate products for use in road construction projects. |
