The Project

Clean power on Southern Ute land

8 Rivers and The Southern Ute Indian Tribe Growth Fund have joined together to develop the Coyote Clean Power Project, locating one of the world’s first ultra-low to zero-emissions power plants within the Southern Ute Indian Reservation. 

The Coyote Clean Power Project will represent a paradigm shift in how the world generates energy, producing 200-300 MW of clean power 24/7, while capturing and storing CO2.

The Tribe’s participation continues their long history of leadership in environmental stewardship and the energy transition, including the development and operation of a facility for a decade that captured naturally venting fugitive methane and one of the first utility-scale solar projects in Southwest Colorado.

This power plant will inherently capture and produce pipeline-quality CO2 that can be sequestered, all while operating at competitive cost and efficiency to traditional carbon-fuel based power plants.

Near Zero Emissions Power Plant

200-300 MW of power with ultra-low to zero-emissions utilizing the cleanest and most economic power generation solution available.

100% Clean Energy

Coyote accelerates the path towards a carbon neutral environment with power that’s clean, affordable, and flexible.

Investment and Jobs

Coyote is expected to bring in hundreds of millions of dollars in investment to build the plant, potentially creating over 1,000 direct and indirect jobs during peak construction.

Power Without Pollution

It has the potential to capture more than 800,000 tons of CO2 per year, while emitting no air pollutants and operating water neutral.

The Coyote Clean Power Project will be situated on a brownfield site on the southwestern portion of the Southern Ute Indian Reservation.
