CRC is advancing a differentiated portfolio of energy infrastructure assets across carbon management, low-carbon power, and adjacent energy infrastructure to help accelerate California's energy transition. Carbon TerraVault is further supported by a strategic joint venture with Brookfield, which has committed an initial $500 million to invest in CCS projects.
