Protecting the Planet Through Fiber Optic Monitoring of Captured CO2

The growing threat of global climate change and adoption of “Net Zero” initiatives has forced countries to find alternatives to emitting CO2 in the atmosphere. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is the only industrial large-scale solution currently available across multiple industries.

For more than a decade, Luna Innovations, through its OptaSense business, has acquired and analyzed carbon capture and storage site data for a variety of clients. In many of those cases, the tracking of the subsurface CO2 plume size is of utmost importance in order to ensure optimal carbon storage over time.
