DOE Sank Billions of Fossil Energy R&D Dollars in CCS Projects. Most Failed.

DOE Sank Billions of Fossil Energy R&D Dollars in CCS Projects. Most Failed.: Nearly half of the $2.66 billion spent by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) since 2010 to develop advanced fossil energy technologies was dedicated to nine carbon capture and storage (CCS) demonstration projects—but only three were active at the end of 2017, and only one was at a power plant.
