Powering Louisiana’s Future – Heirloom and Project Cypress Driving the Next Energy Revolution

Louisiana has always powered America – from offshore rigs to refineries to the plants that fuel our nation’s economy. At Heirloom, we’re proud to help write the next chapter by bringing new technologies that capture and commoditize carbon dioxide to help position Louisiana to lead the next great energy revolution, securing jobs, lifting rural communities, and keeping Louisiana competitive for decades. 

President Trump has called for a new “Golden Era of American Energy Dominance,” urging the nation to unlock its full potential through expanded production and accelerated innovation. Governor Landry is advancing that vision with policies that drive energy growth and industrial innovation across Louisiana, laying the foundation for projects that strengthen America’s energy and industrial security.

A New Engine of Growth for Northwest Louisiana

Project Cypress positions Louisiana to compete in a global industry worth more than $135 billion. This combined investment will spark a new wave of industry, turning captured carbon into opportunities that power advanced manufacturing, new fuels and stronger energy production that achieve the same prosperity that Louisianans have secured for generations. 

Big players are already investing. We’re working with partners like United Airlines to advance next-generation aviation fuels. And tech companies driving the AI revolution are among our largest customers, using DAC to balance the energy intensity of data centers. These partnerships show that the world’s leading companies believe in what we are building here in Louisiana.

Smart federal policy set the stage – from granting Louisiana the authority to manage carbon storage to new incentives that drive private investment. Now it’s Louisiana’s turn to seize this opportunity, build the industries of the future, and create thousands of jobs. 

Strong Leadership in Louisiana and Washington

This progress would not be possible without champions at every level. 

With strong leadership from Governor Jeff Landry, support from House Speaker Mike Johnson, and bold vision for American energy competitiveness from President Trump, Louisiana has the champions it needs to ensure job-creators like us can succeed. Their leadership creates the conditions for innovation, job creation, and global competitiveness – and we’re proud to be part of that momentum.

Together, their leadership ensures Louisiana remains at the forefront of industrial growth, creating new industries and opportunities for generations to come.

A Model for National Security and Global Competitiveness

Project Cypress is strategically co-located with pipelines and industrial corridors to reduce costs and accelerate deployment – the same way Louisiana’s LNG boom was built. Once again, Louisiana is proving that energy dominance starts here, showing the nation how to lead an energy revolution from the ground up.

In a world where competitors are positioning against us, America cannot afford to fall behind. By embracing DAC as part of our energy mix; we’re strengthening national security – ensuring that the United States – not foreign adversaries – controls the technologies that will fuel industry and shape global energy production for decades to come.

We started Heirloom because we believe this is how America wins: by building the industries of the future around the strengths we already possess. Louisiana understands energy abundance, knows how to build resilient infrastructure, and has the skilled workforce to match. The same formula that made it a leader in oil, gas, and LNG will make it a leader in the next chapter of American energy.

Louisiana’s Next Chapter

Energy dominance is not a slogan. It’s a strategy – and it is being built right here in Louisiana. Project Cypress demonstrates how federal support and private innovation can create new industries, generate jobs, and keep America ahead of global competitors. While China and Europe are racing ahead with major investments, Heirloom is committed to ensuring that America leads this critical frontier. 

Now is the time to double down. With strong leadership from Governor Landry, bold vision from President Trump, and Louisiana’s congressional delegation fighting for us, Project Cypress will become a global model for American innovation, industrial strength, and energy leadership.

We’re proud to be investing in Northwest Louisiana and partnering with local communities to build the industries of tomorrow. When Louisiana leads, America wins – and with Project Cypress, we can lead today while building a stronger, more competitive energy future for generations to come.
