CCS

Denmark has launched ambitious plans to scale up CCS projects in order to meet the country’s climate targets but will need to resolve a number of challenges on the way including access to sufficient storage capacity.

Impurities in CO2 can corrode pipelines and storage facilities and potentially lead to huge liabilities for carbon capture projects.

Storage bottlenecks and a fragmented regulatory framework are the main obstacles to carbon capture and storage development in Europe, a conference heard.

The EU’s bet on carbon capture and storage could require ‘eye-wateringly high subsidies,’ and the technology also has a dismal track record, a new report finds. Heavy reliance on CCS could result in the EU badly missing climate targets.

The 4th Industrial Carbon Management Forum (ICM Forum) will take place in the south of France this month, at a time when questions are being asked about the costs and effectiveness of carbon capture projects.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has hit a roadblock in the UK after a group of climate scientists and organisations sent an open letter to the government.

Canada’s oil sands producers want the government to spend billions of dollars on carbon capture and storage (CCS). But even as costs balloon for the public, many projects have stalled.

Santos continues to pursue a carbon capture and storage strategy for its gas projects.

Critics say the EU’s new emissions reduction strategy focuses too heavily on unproven carbon capture technologies.

The government has been trying to clean up Vietnam’s power sector, but is facing considerable self-inflicted problems.

Over-reliance on CCS in decarbonisation plans might prolong the role of fossil fuels in economies, experts warned.

A new study finds that adopting CCS across many polluting sectors would cost $30 trillion more than a low-CCS scenario. Experts say the fossil fuel industry’s preferred solution would be “highly economically damaging.”

Documents leaked to the BBC showed that the UAE’s COP28 team had plans to discuss oil and gas deals with 15 countries.

With its Hail and Ghasha mega-project, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company says it will use carbon capture and storage to operate with net zero emissions.

The Indonesian energy sector is boosting its development of carbon capture storage and utilization at a time when it is also setting more ambitious net zero goals.
