A pioneering technology that can permanently store carbon dioxide (CO2) in concrete blocks has gone through successful testing at the Alabama-based National Carbon Capture Center (NCCC).
CarbonBuilt and the NCCC, located next to Alabama Power’s Plant Gaston in Wilsonville, announced the completion of the multiweek test of carbon utilization and concrete production technology. The test successfully injected CO2 from the flue gas streams of the NCCC’s natural gas testing system and Plant Gaston’s coal-fired generating unit into more than 5,000 concrete blocks, where the carbon is now “stored for good,” according to a news release.

Alabama Power expects to spend $3.3 billion over the next several years to close its coal ash ponds, a growing expense that already led to higher utility bills across the state.
Last year Alabama Power estimated those cleanup costs to be around $2.8 billion, but the company’s assistant comptroller, Wendy Hoomes, told state regulators last week during a public hearing that the new estimate is $3.3 billion.
Last year, Alabama Power increased customer rates by about 3%, citing coal ash clean-up costs as a driving factor. Next year’s 2 percent increase, which takes effect in January, is not tied to coal ash or environmental compliance costs, but other infrastructure costs.
