 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 7134

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 April 1, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. PARKER -- read twice and ordered printed, and when
 printed to be committed to the Committee on Energy and Telecommuni-
 cations

 AN ACT to amend the public service law and the labor law, in relation to
 requiring the establishment of carbon capture projects

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. The public service law is amended by adding a new section
 2 66-x to read as follows:
 3 § 66-x. Carbon capture projects. 1. The legislature hereby finds and
 4 declares that:
 5 (a) the climate leadership and community protection act (CLCPA)
 6 requires significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, including a
 7 forty percent reduction in statewide greenhouse gas emissions by two
 8 thousand thirty and an eighty-five percent reduction in statewide green-
 9 house gas emissions by two thousand fifty;
 10 (b) in order to meet these aggressive targets, it is necessary to
 11 further develop technologies that can help reduce greenhouse gas emis-
 12 sions from existing infrastructure;
 13 (c) carbon capture technology has the potential to reduce greenhouse
 14 gas emissions from hard-to-electrify and other sectors, including the
 15 industrial sector, but in order for the technology to be scaled for
 16 broader use, innovative efforts will be needed;
 17 (d) decarbonization of these sectors will provide substantial benefits
 18 to disadvantaged communities, where sources in the industrial and
 19 related sectors are often sited;
 20 (e) supporting the further development of carbon capture technology
 21 will offer new opportunities for developing and employing New York's
 22 workforce; and

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.

 S. 7134 2

 1 (f) therefore, it is the intent of the legislature to support the
 2 development of carbon capture technology in New York in order to achieve
 3 the greenhouse gas emissions reduction goals of the CLCPA.
 4 2. As used in this section:
 5 (a) "carbon capture" means the capture of greenhouse gas emissions
 6 that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere;
 7 (b) "carbon capture demonstration project" means a project integrated
 8 into the gas distribution system or installed at a customer site to
 9 develop and test carbon capture technologies, which may include aspects
 10 related to the storage and/or transportation of any captured carbon; and
 11 (c) "final carbon capture project" means a carbon capture demon-
 12 stration project that has been approved by the commission in accordance
 13 with paragraph (c) of subdivision four of this section and any addi-
 14 tional carbon capture project or projects as noted in such paragraph.
 15 3. No later than June first, two thousand twenty-five, the commission
 16 shall initiate a proceeding to support the development of carbon capture
 17 for the purpose of meeting the greenhouse gas emissions goals of the
 18 CLCPA.
 19 4. (a) No later than December first, two thousand twenty-five, each
 20 gas corporation shall submit to the commission, for review and approval,
 21 at least one and no more than five carbon capture demonstration
 22 projects, provided that each gas corporation shall submit at least one
 23 carbon capture demonstration project that provides workforce benefits,
 24 including job retention, creation or training, and at least one carbon
 25 capture demonstra
