The proposed carbon pipelines are receiving pushback from some groups as they work to secure permitting in the Midwest. American Carbon Alliance CEO Tom Buis says it can be difficult to do something that’s never been done before. “There’s people that are afraid of change, but there’s also critics out there who don’t want to see you succeed.” Each state has different rules and guidelines for pipelines. “All the pipeline companies are certainly trying to work with those regulators to make sure they meet those goals.” Buis says pipelines would provide a safe way to transport carbon for sequestration.
