Pioneering a path to a net-neutral economy
Heartland Greenway is the sum of its parts. We are engineers, environmentalists, innovators, and a community of people who are working together towards a common goal. We believe in the Midwest and its place at the forefront of agriculture.
Just as we generate power or transport clean drinking water, carbon capture is a vital part of our infrastructure ecosystem. It’s what prevents excess carbon from being released into the air, what protects corn prices, and what keeps the Midwest economy viable. Carbon capture has been advanced or funded by the following organizations:
Navigator is investing $1.79 Billion to develop carbon management infrastructure to advance Iowa’s net-neutral economic goals.
Every year, Heartland Greenway is taxed for each mile of the pipeline, equating to $24.5 Million in new property taxes for Iowa.
At peak construction, Heartland Greenway will be responsible for 10,322 direct and indirect employment opportunities throughout Iowa.
Heartland Greenway will reach industrial customers in Iowa, Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and South Dakota with over 1,300 miles of new liquid CO2 pipeline, buried 5 feet underground.
We recognize that achieving carbon neutrality is essential for a sustainable future, and we are leading the way by incorporating carbon capture as part of the agricultural process.
Agriculture has long been the heart and soul of Iowa and the Midwest. Our goal is to keep it that way. Heartland Greenway can boost Iowa’s economy by incorporating carbon capture as part of corn and ethanol processing. The result is renewable fuels, a stable price for corn, and an opportunity for Iowa to reap the economic advantages.
At Heartland Greenway, we don’t just capture carbon, we put it to good use. We are among the first large CCUS projects in the US to prioritize reusing captured carbon, supporting industries that need it, and paving the way for a more sustainable future.
With the worldwide goal of achieving net neutrality by 2050, everyone from Midwest farmers and the biofuel industry to over 200 countries have set their own carbon reduction goals. Yet, multiple experts agree — we can’t do it without Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS).
Get up to speed on all things CCUS including deep insights, expert opinions, and more.
Heartland Greenway is one of the first large-scale, commercially viable carbon capture projects to be developed in the United States.
Developed by Navigator CO2, our system will provide biofuel producers and other rural industrial processors in Iowa and 4 other Midwestern states with a long-term and cost-effective means to reduce their carbon footprint.
Our teams have meticulously planned for every stage of Heartland Greenway, so that each detail ensures a successful outcome.
Get answers to the most commonly asked questions about carbon capture, from process and benefits to impact and implementation.
Agriculture has always been the heart and soul of the Midwest. As we continue to discover innovative ways to support our agricultural community and families across the Midwest, we can see carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is a clear path to the future. CCUS will help support our biofuels industries by allowing them to reduce their negative environmental effects which will open more markets for their product both here in the United States.
