Plain-English Summary
The bill would establish a commission to study and advance bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), a technology that captures carbon dioxide from burning biomass or directly from the air and stores it underground to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The commission would likely include experts from energy, agriculture, and environmental fields who would research how to develop and deploy this technology more effectively across the United States. This affects energy companies, farmers who could supply biomass, and communities concerned with climate change and carbon emissions.
