How Did DoE Waste Half a $Billion on Carbon Capture? Bob Bauman
This week we meet with Bob Bauman, a veteran government investigator and auditor, to discuss how the Department of Energy (DoE) wasted nearly half a billion dollars on failed carbon capture and storage (CSS) technology demonstration projects.
The failed CSS projects are described in a report released by the Government Accountability Office in December 2021 called CARBON CAPTURE AND STORAGE: Actions Needed to Improve DOE Management of Demonstration Projects.
Bob uses his 30+ years as a government investigator to explain how this kind of waste occurs, and what it portends for the $3.5 billion the Department of Energy recently announced they're investing on behalf of U.S. taxpayers in CSS projects.
