Why is Entergy interested in Why is Entergy interested in EOR and Geologic EOR and Geologic Sequestration?Sequestration? Provides a bridge to achieve COProvides a bridge to achieve CO22 reductions reductions
now while we build capacity for higher now while we build capacity for higher efficiency, lower carbon portfolio of efficiency, lower carbon portfolio of generating assets in the future;generating assets in the future;
Gives us a viable option for managing carbon Gives us a viable option for managing carbon risk and creating growth opportunities;risk and creating growth opportunities;
