Casper Carbon Storage Hub

The Casper Carbon Storage Hub is a proposed sequestration site in Natrona County, Wyoming, designed to support the Spiritus Orchard One Direct Air Capture (DAC) facility. The project will inject CO₂ into deep saline formations at a rate starting around 50,000 metric tons per year, ultimately scaling up to 750,000 metric tons annually. Over its planned 15-year operating life, the hub could store up to 6 million metric tons of CO₂. The EPA has received a Class VI injection well application for the project, which is currently under technical review. The hub represents one of Wyoming’s first DAC-linked sequestration sites, leveraging the region’s favorable geology for permanent storage and its proximity to existing energy infrastructure. Once operational, it will serve as a model for pairing DAC technology with secure geologic sequestration in the Rocky Mountain region.
