Alberta’s first operational carbon capture facility, the Meadowbrook Carbon Storage Hub, quietly commenced operations in December. Bison Low Carbon Ventures Inc. (Bison), the developer, issued a press release stating: 

“The Phase 1 facility is licensed for up to 500 kilotonnes per annum of CO2 injection and we expect the project, once scaled, to be able to safely handle a minimum of 3 million tonnes per annum of CO2 injection for permanent sequestration.”
