CCUS: Big Opportunity and Hard Questions
A common element of proposed climate strategies is to initially focus on the low-hanging fruit—such as building wind and solar power and retiring coal plants—followed by CCUS deployment to control emissions from the remaining combustion sources and for carbon removal. For this approach to succeed, the groundwork must be laid now. The National Academies report found that work on carbon capture must be accelerated over the next 10 years to provide options for deployment in 2030–2050. The clock is ticking for decisions on how CCUS will play in America’s energy and decarbonization policy.
CCUS: Big Opportunity and Hard Questions
Recent developments expand the opportunities for CCUS, but also set a clock ticking—decisions will have to be made on formulating and meeting carbon emissions targets, including the role of CCUS. This article will identify key issues that American policymakers must resolve to develop a successful CCUS strategy, including for the power industry.
