Technology Roadmap: Carbon Capture and Storage in Industrial Applications

The IEA has undertaken an effort to develop a series of global technology roadmaps. The roadmaps will enable governments, industry and financial partners to identify the steps needed and to implement measures to accelerate the required technology development and uptake. The underlying objective of this roadmap is to advance the global uptake of low-carbon technologies in industrial applications, particularly by involving developing countries and transition economies. This roadmap builds on the initial IEA roadmap on CCS, which outlined actions and milestones for CCS in the power, industry and fuel transformation sectors as a whole. It also draws on the technology roadmap for the cement sector developed by the IEA and the Cement Sustainability Initiative of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.
