Summary: Arbor’s ‘vegetarian rocket engine’ power plant is actually an omnivore Crunch

1. Arbor Energy has raised $55 million in Series A funding to expand its carbon capture power plant technology, now capable of burning natural gas along with biomass.
- This shift is due to increasing demand for electricity from data centers and the availability of natural gas.

2. The power plant, using oxy-combustion technology, will continue capturing CO2 emissions, making it easier for sequestration. However, burning natural gas releases methane, a potent greenhouse gas, so efforts are being made to work with low-leakage rate natural gas providers.

3. Arbor Energy is building a biomass power plant in Louisiana, part of which is funded by a $41 million deal, and it must remove 116,000 tons of carbon dioxide by 2030 under the agreement.
