Carbon Capture

Carbon Capture is a range of technologies designed to capture carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from industrial facilities, power generation and, increasingly, directly from the atmosphere before they are released into the air. The captured CO₂ can then be transported for permanent underground storage or used in industrial processes, helping to reduce emissions from hard-to-abate sectors such as cement, steel, chemicals and energy production. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) and carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) are increasingly recognised as important tools for supporting the transition to a low-carbon economy, alongside renewable energy and energy efficiency.

SustainabilityOnline keeps you informed about the latest developments in carbon capture, including CCS and CCUS technologies, direct air capture, carbon removal, industrial decarbonisation, climate policy and investment in low-carbon innovation. We explore how organisations are deploying carbon capture technologies, reducing emissions from industrial processes, advancing net zero strategies, responding to evolving sustainability regulations and integrating carbon management into wider corporate sustainability programmes. We also examine developments in carbon storage, climate finance, emissions reduction technologies and the role of carbon capture in achieving long-term climate goals.

The first full-scale facility for the permanent storage of CO₂ in the European Union has been officially opened in Denmark.
