The Institute welcomes President Biden’s call for accelerating carbon capture, utilisation, storage, and removals (CCUS and CDR) at the Major Economies Forum (MEF).  The Carbon Management Challenge announced by the White House will be a major catalyst in accelerating the widescale scale-up of carbon capture technology, which will continue to play multiple unique roles in decarbonising the global economy, both in reducing and removing emissions.

The Global CCS Institute welcomes a recently released communique from the Group of Seven (G7) Climate, Energy and Environment Ministers calling for the large-scale deployment of CCS, among other climate mitigation measures, to reduce emissions and reach net zero rapidly. The G7 has shown a united front in its commitment towards CCS, and the communique demonstrates that international collaboration is key for CCS deployment.

In late March, the UK Government selected eight projects under its Track-1 cluster sequencing process  to proceed to negotiations for government support. The government also officially launched its Track-2 cluster sequencing process, which will establish two additional clusters to transport and store at least 10 Mt of CO2 per year by 2030. This progress is incredibly promising and illustrates a continued commitment to having carbon capture, utilisation and storage play a strong role in the UK's low-carbon transition.

In collaboration with Heidelberg Materials, the Global CCS Institute organised and facilitated a capacity building working visit to the Netherlands and Norway for regulators, policymakers and experts involved in developing CCS projects in Bulgaria and Romania. The visit, which was held in March, provided an excellent platform to discuss the barriers and policy gaps currently existing in Bulgaria and Romania, and develop solutions to overcome them in a timely manner.

Over the last few months on the Capture, Store, Repeat podcast, we’ve spoken to guests from around the world to shed light on the progress of CCS. In Episode 8, we talked to the General Manager of the IEAGHG, Tim Dixon, about the need to support the scale-up of CCS through international cooperation and policy mechanisms. We also released an episode highlighting some of our insightful best bits over the last season. You can access the latest episodes on Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify.

2022 was a great year for Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage in China. Within twelve months, China  accomplished many firsts, such as launching the first integrated megaton-scale CCUS project and the first capture project in the glass-making industry. Our latest insight provides a snapshot of the current status of CCUS in China based on a recently released report on the topic authored by the Institute, in partnership with Tsinghua University and the Administrative Centre for China's Agenda 21.
