Carbon Capture for the Last Mile: Why Carbon Capture, Utlilization and Storage is a Game Changer
It's becoming apparent that we've already emitted way too much CO2 into the atmosphere.
A drastic increase in renewables, nuclear and other low-carbon energy sources is necessary to help us keep the global mean temperature increase below 1.5C.
We also need to take care of emissions from energy-intensive industries AND distributed emission sources (hospitals, households, transportation etc).
But here's the thing...
...achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 may not be any more sufficient to keep us below 1.5C or even 2C.
Because of the climate dynamics, we may get closer to 2.5C by 2100.
We need to ACT NOW.

Carbon Capture for the Last Mile: Why Carbon Capture, Utlilization and Storage is a Game Changer
Decarbonizing the U.S. economy will require deploying renewable energy and natural climate solutions. And beyond that will come another big game changer: capturing carbon, storing it and utilizing it.
- Can direct air capture mature fast enough to contribute to net-zero pathways?
- What is your view on working with universities and postgraduate students on short consultancy projects?
- Direct air capture: how advanced is technology to suck up carbon dioxide – and could it slow climate change?

The Energy Central Power Industry Network is based on one core idea - power industry professionals helping each other and advancing the industry by sharing and learning from each other.
If you have an experience or insight to share or have learned something from a conference or seminar, your peers and colleagues on Energy Central want to hear about it. It's also easy to share a link to an article you've liked or an industry resource that you think would be helpful.
