Delivering carbon capture and storage

The Global Status of CCS

The Global CCS Institute’s annual status report is the world’s most thorough stocktake and analysis of CCS progress. The Global Status of CCS report provides a comprehensive overview of the development of CCS projects and technologies around the world, challenges encountered and actions taken to overcome them.

Global map of CCS projects

The Institute regularly updates an interactive map of the large-scale integrated CCS projects we have identified around the world. The map can be downloaded.

openCCS

The openCCS resource provides guidance on the activities to be completed at each stage of a CCS project. The resource has been developed by CCS experts based on best practice and lessons learnt from experience. The aim is to share information and methodologies that will help projects around the world move more quickly to deployment.

CCS practitioner insights

The Institute has a vast global network of CCS practitioners whose experiences and insights are shared through a variety of Institute-supported knowledge networks and blogs, providing an invaluable resource for the CCS community.
