This report maps Europe’s CCS landscape, covering policy frameworks, funding mechanisms, early project success stories, and CO₂ infrastructure. It highlights EU strategies, financial support, and regional agreements, providing insights to accelerate CCS deployment and support EU climate targets.

This study finds CCUS is critical for decarbonising WA’s emissions-intensive industries. WA has storage capacity, skilled workforce, and infrastructure to develop CCUS hubs, supporting net-zero goals, cross-sector collaboration, job creation, and attracting international investment.

The 2023 Global Status of CCS report provides a snapshot of CCS progress worldwide, highlighting rapid developments across North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, the UK, and MENA. It emphasises the critical role of scaling CCS to achieve global climate goals.

Following the growing recognition of CCS as an essential climate mitigation solution, over the last two decades several jurisdictions around the world have implemented effective legal and regulatory regimes aimed at facilitating CCS activities and scaling up the technology. Developed by the Global CCS Institute, the CCS Legal and Regulatory Indicator (LRI) assesses the key factors needed to establish a comprehensive legal and regulatory framework for CCS.

The 2023 CCS Technology Compendium presents over 70 commercially available technologies, detailing benefits, applications, and innovations. Developed by the Global CCS Institute, it offers insights into the latest CCS advancements worldwide to support project developers and industry stakeholders.

This report examines the investment case for CCS, highlighting policy tools, economic value, and risk factors. It reviews developments in the US, EU, and Japan, and includes case studies on hydrogen, ammonia, CO₂ hubs, and power generation to guide capital deployment in CCS projects.

This report outlines CCS milestones ahead of COP28, including IPCC AR6 insights, political positioning via G7/G20 and the Carbon Management Challenge, IEA credible pathways, and Bonn Conference outcomes. It highlights opportunities to advance CCS deployment during this critical decade of climate action.

This report examines India’s carbon credit trading scheme and CCUS developments, highlighting policy frameworks, research initiatives, and national climate ambitions. It assesses how these measures support domestic emissions reductions, drive CCUS deployment, and strengthen India’s climate leadership, including through G20 engagement and updated NDCs.

Published on 20 March 2023, the IPCC AR6 Synthesis Report underscores the importance of CCS in mitigating climate change. This brief from the Global CCS Institute highlights key takeaways on how CCS supports international climate targets.

Read the Institute's latest publication, which highlights CCUS progress in China.

China has made significant progress in CCUS technology development in recent years and has acquired the capability to design and demonstrate large-scale CO₂ capture, transport, utilisation and storage systems.

This latest report, written in collaboration with Tsinghua University and the Administrative Centre for Agenda 21, provides an overview of CCUS policy development, and provides relevant policy recommendations aimed to support the scale up of CCUS in China.

With the English version of the report released on March 17, the publication is also now officially available in Chinese from July 10 onward.
