Tenaska Advances the Tri-State CCS HUB in West Virginia

June 5, 2024

Thank you for the positive reception of Tenaska’s Tri-State CCS Hub. The support of landowners, local leaders, businesses and community stakeholders is key to our goal of developing a carbon capture and storage (CCS) project that is safe, responsible and, ultimately, mutually beneficial. 

Today, we are excited to share progress on the extensive permitting of the project. Last month, Tenaska submitted its first Class VI application with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for our West Virginia well sites. The EPA has done an initial completeness review of the application and has deemed it administratively complete. This is a critical first step in the regulatory/permitting process and kicks off a roughly two-year technical review process to secure approval for construction. 

The project will need to submit additional Class VI applications as it pertains to the Ohio and Pennsylvania well site. Progress is under way.

While there is much work ahead, our team remains optimistic about the path forward, knowing that your continued support is a driving force behind our efforts.

To help keep you informed, we’ve taken steps to enhance our visibility and communication efforts:

• We launched our official website for the Tri-State CCS Hub (tristateccshub.com). This serves as a valuable resource for any updates, information, and insights into our progress on the project.
• We have established local offices in Weirton, West Virginia, and Cadiz, Ohio, with plans for opening a Pennsylvania location in the near future. 

West Virginia local office:  210 Three Springs Drive, Suite #2Weirton, WV 26062 Office Hours: Thursdays 10AM – 1PM, or by appointment

Ohio local office: 108 S. Main StreetCadiz, OH 43907 Office Hours: Thursday 2PM – 5PM,or by appointment

We are grateful for the opportunity to work together and are committed to making a positive impact on our community.

If you have any questions, thoughts, or ideas to share regarding the project, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team. Your input is of the utmost importance, and we welcome your continued support and partnership.
