Abstract
Carbon Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions can be captured from large point sources, transported to geological sites, and sequestered indefinitely using a variety of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies. Regarded as the most important technological approach to mitigating climate change, CCS has had some success being deployed in the oil and gas industry, but deployment in the power sector has only occurred with pilot plants. While a number of CCS projects have been successfully deployed over the last decade, over a quarter of CCS projects around the globe have been postponed, put on hold, or cancelled altogether.
