| Abstract | The International Energy Agency (IEA) has identified Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) in deep geological formation as one of the key approaches to reduce CO2 emissions. CCS is a combination of technologies for CO2 capture from large emitter industries and CO2 storage in deep geological formations, preventing its release back into the atmosphere. Currently, there are key barriers for the wide adoption of CCS on a large scale, such as (a) the high cost of CO2 capture that is an energy intensive chemical process, (b) the high cost of subsurface CO2 storage especially at the early stages of site selection and characterization of safe storage sites, and (c) the uncertainties in how CCS projects are financed and the interplay between technological innovation and policy intervention on the CO2 market and emission targets. | |
