Abstract:
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a rapid growing technology, a way of reducing carbon emissions, and could be the key to battle global warming. Being developed and improved upon over the years, it has proved that it is an effective way to keep carbon dioxide (CO2) away from the atmosphere, unlike other methods of creating “clean energy” like solar and wind that simply reduce our dependency on fossil fuels. CCS is based on the fact that it does not let CO2 reach the atmosphere but instead it is used as a siphon to store it underground under layers of hard rock. With a track record of capturing a significant portion of CO2 emissions, CCS offers a promising path forward, overall having a promising future and a lot of investors to be a part of this system as research continues to strive. CCS is playing a significant role in achieving the most efficient net-zero emission machine and for us to have a cleaner future.
