This Power Plant Has Cracked Carbon Capture

A company called NET Power,at their 50-megawatt demonstration plant outside Houston,  is testing a way of drawing power from natural gas that (they say) is at least as cheap as traditional methods—and captures 100 percent of the resulting carbon emissions. Instead of using steam to push a turbine, as in a traditional power plant, Net Power uses pressurized CO2, which increases efficiency while keeping the CO2 contained.
