Credit XPRIZE Foundation
As the $20 million NRG COSIA Carbon XPRIZE comes to a close in Wyoming, Gov. Mark Gordon has offered up the state to once again host an XPRIZE competition, public records acquired by Wyoming Public Media show.
The offer followed a cryptic Jan. 21 tweet from Elon Musk, CEO and founder of Tesla, which read: Am donating $100M towards a prize for best carbon capture technology.
The tweet sparked a conversation in the Governor s office of how to best be a part of the effort. Discussion resulted in a letter sent Jan. 27 to the non-profit XPRIZE Foundation to pass along to Musk. It laid out how Wyoming would be well-positioned to host the new XPRIZE competition. Gordon began the letter by outlining the state s interest in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS).
