Google has signed a new type of Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Broadwing Energy for electricity generated by a natural gas plant equipped with Carbon Capture and Sequestration (CCS). The proposed 400-megawatt facility in Decatur, Illinois, is designed to capture approximately 90% of its carbon emissions using technology from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, with captured CO2 stored permanently in deep underground wells operated by Archer Daniels Midland (ADM).
