Description
Summary:	Examines key uncertainties in carbon dioxide (CO2) pipeline requirements for carbon capture and sequestration, by contrasting hypothetical pipeline scenarios for 11 major coal-fired power plants in the Midwest Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership region. Demonstrates how different assumptions about sequestration site viability can lead to a 20-fold difference in CO2 pipeline lengths, and, therefore, similarly large differences in capital costs.
