When the Stern Review, back in 2006, estimated that carbon capture and storage (CCS) has the potential to contribute up to 28% of global carbon dioxide mitigation by 2050, the concept was still seen as something of a pipedream. Over the past three years, CCS has evolved rapidly; from being considered a marginal and unproven process there is now widespread acknowledgement that it will need to be an essential part of our decarbonised energy future.
