CCS is one of the key technologies that could enable a low-carbon energy transition. Some large-scale CCS projects are a reality today. However, scaling up the deployment of CCS by a factor of more than a hundred-fold could be required over the course of this century, with a significant proportion needed before mid-century.
Financing CCS projects is complex, with key challenges around high capital costs and the need to effectively derisk investments across the full value chain—from capture to transport and storage. Building a strong business case, addressing long-term liability and ensuring clear policy and government support are essential to attract investor confidence and enable project scale-up. Regional differences in policy frameworks and market maturity play a significant role in how projects reach final investment decision, with notable progress in Europe and emerging developments in India, the Middle East and Africa.
The webinar will offer a range of perspectives around evolving financing models, increased collaboration, and joint ventures that are shaping risk allocation, including financial mechanisms, government support and broader market trends.
