This report aims to shed light on the different applications and conceptualisations of CCUS/CCS, demystifying the technology’s applications, concepts and categorisations. It explains the dichotomy between enhanced oil recovery and carbon capture within dedicated geological structures, and the difference between carbon capture and utilisation (CCU), CCUS and CCS. It uses …
This publication updates the 2015 carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) road map for the People's Republic of China (PRC). Reflecting changes in CCUS and low-carbon development targets in the PRC since 2015, the publication highlights the role of CCUS in decarbonizing hydrogen production from fossil fuels; CCUS-readiness of the …
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies are set to play an important role in putting the global energy system on a path to net zero. Successfully deploying CCUS relies on the establishment of legal and regulatory frameworks to ensure the effective stewardship of CCUS activities and the safe and …
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its Sixth Assessment report in April 2022. The nuance of what was heard likely depends on where interests lie. Some argue the recent report gives the green light for continued fossil fuel use with carbon capture and storage (CCS), while others contend …
The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas (MoPNG) has issued Draft 2030 Roadmap for Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) for Upstream E&P; Companies. The following has been stated namely: To provide a unified and practical strategy for development and implementation of Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS)/ Carbon Capture …
In its landmark report last year, Net Zero by 2050: A Roadmap for the Global Energy Sector, the IEA stated that “international programmes to fund demonstration projects, especially in sectors where technologies are large and complex, would accelerate the innovation process”. The IEA estimates that at least USD 90 billion …
This full version of the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report Climate Change 2014: Impacts, Adaptation, and Vulnerability released on 16 October 2014 provides the most comprehensive look to date at the widespread impacts and risks of climate change and the opportunities for response. There has been an evolution in the treatment …
ExxonMobil’s ambition for net zero is backed by a comprehensive approach to develop Scope 1 and Scope 2 emission-reduction roadmaps for major facilities and assets. The net-zero ambition, contained in the company’s Advancing Climate Solutions - 2022 Progress Report, builds on ExxonMobil’s 2030 emission-reduction plans which includes net-zero plans for …
A circular carbon economy (CCE) model aims to manage the carbon in the system as opposed to solely working towards its elimination. This policy brief focuses on the carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) component of such a model in the context of India. It highlights the relevance of this …
This study evaluates investments required to achieve India’s net-zero emissions target of 2070. Achieving net-zero involves technology pathways as well as financial flows. These finance flows, or investments, also known as total investment, are required to fund the construction of the associated physical infrastructure. The mobilisation of investments to achieve …
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) continues to make significant progress around the world against a backdrop of greater climate action from countries and private companies. The Global Status of CCS 2021 demonstrates the critical role of CCS as nations and industry accelerate to net-zero. The report provides detailed analyses of …
Most of the policy measures introduced in 2020 and 2021 as a response to the socioeconomic crises induced by the COVID-19 pandemic focused on addressing health concerns and a speedy economic recovery. Considerably less attention has been paid to combatting climate change and preventing environmental degradation, for which many governments …
Reducing global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions to net zero by 2050 is necessary to limit the long‐term increase in average global temperatures to 1.5 °C. Today, coal-fired power generation is the largest single source of CO2 emissions. Therefore, tackling emissions from this sector is critical to achieving our goal. National …
This study presents alternative peaking and net-zero scenarios for India and highlights its implications for transition in the energy-intensive sectors such as electricity, transport, building, and industry. It explores four combinations of peaking and net-zero-year scenarios for India (2030–2050, 2030–2060, 2040–2070, and 2050–2080) and analyses how a combination of possible …

This issue brief highlights the escalating momentum of Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) in India amidst a growing net-zero debate across the globe. CCUS has been a topic of discussion for more than two decades, but it has not gained any focus because of limited research, finance and policy …
CCS is one of many climate mitigating technologies that is mature, commercially available, and absolutely necessary to achieve global net-zero ambitions and a stable climate. The total installed CCS capacity must increase 100-fold by 2050 to limit global warming to below 2° Celsius. This report summarises policy and legal factors …
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) technologies are set to play an important role in supporting clean energy transitions in Southeast Asia. CCUS can address emissions from the region’s existing power and industrial assets while underpinning new economic opportunities associated with the production of low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia. Regional co-operation …
This report by the International Energy Agency offers world's first comprehensive roadmap for transitioning to a net zero energy system by 2050. It includes more than 400 milestones that set out how governments and businesses could navigate the rapid transformation of the global economy The number of countries announcing pledges …
For CCS to fulfill its potential in reducing significant global emissions, this technology must be deployed in all parts of the world. Yet there are currently very few CCS projects in developing countries. This report was commissioned by ClearPath and Southern Company to examine the role of climate finance in …
