Recovery Act: Regional Sequestration TechnologyTraining: Projects under this FOA will be funded, in whole or in part, with funds appropriated by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Pub. L. 111-5, (Recovery Act or Act). The Recovery Acts purposes are to stimulate the economy and to create and retain jobs. The Act gives preference to activities that can be started and completed expeditiously. Accordingly, special consideration will be given to projects that promote and enhance the objectives of the Act, especially job creation, preservation and economic recovery, in an expeditious manner. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies offer great potential for reducing CO2 emissions and mitigating global climate change. Deploying these technologies will require a significantly expanded workforce trained in the various specialties that are currently under-represented in the United States. Education and training activities undertaken will develop a future generation of geologists and other scientists, and engineers that will provide the human capital and skills required for implementing and deploying CCS technologies. Grant applications are sought from companies, trade groups, and other organizations that can develop regional sequestration technology training to facilitate transfer of knowledge and technologies required for site development, operations, and monitoring of commercial CCS projects. This training will focus on the applied engineering and science of CCS for site developers, geologists, engineers, and technicians. In addition, these training activities will provide a technology transfer platform for CO2 sequestration related technology information and insights on a basin scale level to the sequestration industry in a concise, meaningful format that stimulates timely, informed technology decisions. This regional CO2 sequestration technology training will advance the United States in its position as the leader in technology for addressing climate change and for developing near-zero emission technologies to significantly reduce CO2 emissions from power plants. Development of this training will make a vital contribution to the scientific, technical, and institutional knowledge necessary to establish frameworks for the development of commercial CCS projects. This training will produce the workforce necessary for the CCS industry with skills and competencies in geology, geophysics, geomechanics, geochemistry and reservoir engineering disciplines.
