5 start-ups on the path to becoming household names

Among start-ups to watch in 2017 are these trailblazers, a select group that nearly made CNBC's inaugural Upstart 25 list of the most promising young start-ups. These forward thinkers are building brands and breaking industry barriers on the path to becoming tomorrow's household names. To be eligible, companies had to be privately held and no more than five years old. They also had to have a funding cap of $50 million.

We received more than 500 submissions for the list, which required us to cut more than 95 percent of innovative young companies poised for success. These five caught our attention because of their creative ideas and the lucrative niches they are targeting for growth.

Yale Environment 360: First Carbon-Capture Coal Plant in U.S. is Now Fully Operational http://bit.ly/2jgKoY9  

 
The first large-scale power plant in the U.S. that removes and stores carbon dioxide from coal combustion is now fully operating near Houston, Texas, capturing more than 1 million tons of CO2 annually.

Operated by NRG Energy and JX Nippon Oil & Gas Exploration Corp., the Petra Nova plant — which cost more than $1 billion — extracts carbon dioxide from flue gases and then pipes them to the West Ranch oil field 80 miles away, where the CO2 helps extract additional oil from the ground. The U.S. Department of Energy, which provided $190 million in grants to the plant, called the facility “the world’s largest post-combustion carbon-capture system.” A second large carbon-capture plant is set to become operational in Mississippi by the end of the month. The Kemper Power Plant is designed to turn lignite, a type of coal, into a gas called syngas, removing some of the CO2 before the syngas is burned to generate electricity.
