Bracewell is at the vanguard of policy, regulatory and other legal developments related to CCUS projects and transactions. With one of the world’s largest cross- disciplinary energy teams, we have an unparalleled understanding of the vast business issues facing emitters, developers of carbon capture facilities, CO2 pipeline companies, CO2 storage providers, oil and gas companies utilizing CO2 for enhanced oil and gas recovery and tax equity investors. 

We represent stakeholders in the manufacturing, power, chemical, bio-fuels and oil and gas industries in their efforts to transition to less carbon-intensive operations.

Our global team includes lawyers with broad experience in the midstream and upstream oil and gas sectors, as well as in renewable and conventional power. This experience complements the firm’s strengths in project development and finance, corporate transactions, environmental strategies, land rights, energy regulation, transactional tax and tax policy.

BKV is a forward thinking, growth driven energy company focused on creating value for our stockholders. Our core business is to produce natural gas from our owned and operated upstream businesses, which we expect to achieve net zero Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, for our owned and operated upstream and midstream assets, by the early 2030s. We maintain a “closed-loop” approach to our net zero emissions goal with our four business lines: natural gas production, natural gas midstream, power generation, and carbon capture, utilization and sequestration (“CCUS”). BKV was founded in 2015, and our employees are committed to building a different kind of energy company. We are a group of innovators passionate about how the energy industry can change the world. We understand the impact climate change has on our community, the world and future generations, and addressing these impacts in how energy is produced is a top priority. Through our CCUS business, we aim to reduce man-made GHG emissions to the atmosphere by capturing CO2 emitted in connection with natural gas activities, whether from their own operations or third- party operations, as well as from other energy and industrial sources. BKV commenced operations at its inaugural CCUS project, Barnett Zero, in November 2023. BKV is one of the top 20 gas-weighted natural gas producers in the United States and the largest natural gas producer by gross operated volume in the Barnett Shale. We believe that our differentiated business model, net zero emissions focus, highly experienced management team and technology-driven approach to operating our business will enable us to create stockholder value.

BKV Corporation is the parent company for the BKV family of companies.

Headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, ION Clean Energy has developed a transformative carbon capture technology that is particularly effective in capturing CO2 emissions from natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) flue gas streams.

ION’s solution captures between 95% to over 99% of CO2 emissions with fast kinetics and low energy use, is exceptionally resistant to oxidative degradation and remarkably stable, and has extremely low emissions.

ION has over 20,000 hours of successful performance testing at the National Carbon Capture Center in Alabama and Technology Centre Mongstad in Norway, the world’s largest and most advanced CO2 capture test facility.

ION is the carbon capture technology featured at Calpine’s Sutter Decarbonization Project, a full-scale carbon capture demonstration project at its Sutter Energy Center which recently executed a cost share agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED). The Sutter Decarbonization Project is designed to capture 95% of existing carbon dioxide emissions enabling the Sutter Energy Center to produce firm, dispatchable, low-carbon electricity.

ION is also operating its custom-built, 10 TPD Enterprise Pilot Project at Calpine’s Los Medanos Energy Center in Pittsburg, CA. The pilot began operation in September 2023 without delays and has continued to demonstrate extremely impressive results on a low CO2, high O2 NGCC flue gas since commissioning began.

From carbon capture to renewable diesel to SAF, our team can assist you in realizing your sustainability goals.

SpiralWave is reimagining carbon capture from the ground up.

Today’s carbon capture systems are stuck in their punch-card era — heavily mechanical, multi-step processes relying on inefficient and expensive air contactors, circulation loops, and regenerators. SpiralWave’s CaptureBeam collapses all of this into a single, seamless, electrically driven interface — with no membranes, no rare earth metals, and no specialty chemicals. Built on scalable manufacturing and smart electrochemistry, CaptureBeam transforms carbon capture into a factory-made product as accessible as modern electronics, enabling rapid container-scale deployment and cost curves that finally make climate impact exponential.
