Emerson to automate Louisiana Green Fuels power facilitys
In Missouri, Emerson has been chosen to automate Strategic Biofuels’ $2-billion landmark Louisiana Green Fuels (LGF) power facility in Caldwell Parish. The project consists of a wood-fired power plant fully integrated with commercial-scale carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), delivering carbon‑neutral electricity to Louisiana’s grid.
At full operation, LGF will convert 1.3 million tons of forestry residuals each year—material that would otherwise be left to decompose or be burned—into renewable baseload power, while capturing and permanently storing 1.1 million metric tons of CO₂ annually in secure geologic formations nearly a mile underground. The project will generate 100 megawatts of clean, dispatchable electricity, positioning Louisiana as a leader in carbon‑neutral energy production.
