Kentucky SB267 amends energy-related statutes to facilitate carbon capture and storage projects.
Kentucky SB267 amends the Kentucky Revised Statutes to allow the cabinet to seek primary jurisdiction over carbon dioxide storage projects. The cabinet can approve up to five demonstration projects for carbon capture and storage, provided they meet specific criteria. The bill also mandates discussions with neighboring states to develop a unified approach to carbon dioxide migration and storage, including agreements on trespass, compensation, and cross-state reservoirs. The cabinet must report annually on the progress of these projects and discussions until all necessary agreements are reached.
