Facts:

The project is the largest hydrogen-fired power generation facility in the world with both state and local support. BP has been discussing with Occidental Petroleum Corporation the possibility of injecting the captured CO2 into their mature California oilfields. Occidental Petroleum is injecting more than one billion cubic feet of CO2 per day in the Permian Basin oil operations in Texas and New Mexico and is the world’s largest CO2 operator.

The expected cost is around $2 billion, twice the initial estimate, with tax credits worth $90 million from US Department of Energy (DOE) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

Current project re-structuring. Project is now named 'California Project' in the mean-time.
