Summit Carbon Applies Again for Pipeline in South Dakota

Summit Carbon Solutions resubmitted an application for a carbon dioxide pipeline to South Dakota state regulators this week. The application included “major reroutes” of the proposed structure in four South Dakota counties. The move happened over a year after the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission rejected the company’s first application. “By working hand-in-hand with landowners and communities, we’ve developed a project that balances progress with respect for those directly involved,” says Lee Blank, CEO of Summit Carbon Solutions. “Together, we’re creating a new pathway to new markets and lasting economic growth for generations to come.” The 2,500-mile pipeline will include 700 miles in South Dakota. It will eventually transport CO2 from 57 ethanol plants across five states, including 14 in South Dakota and Gevo’s (JEE-voes) SAF plant near Lake Preston, South Dakota. The majority of the CO2 will be safely and permanently stored in North Dakota via Class Six injection wells.
