The Global CCS Institute has welcomed the European Green Deal which highlights the important role of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) as a breakthrough technology in helping achieve a climate neutral Europe by 2050.
The plan emphasises the need to develop smart infrastructure for CCS and also highlights plans for European CCS projects to share infrastructure for CO2 transportation and storage in order to drive down unit costs across the CCS value chain.
