# Future role of CCS technologies in the power sector. Citation: IEAGHG, "Future role of CCS technologies in the power sector", 2020-08, August 2020. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies are essential for meeting global temperature targets at least cost. Low-carbon, dispatchable, power generation plants with CCS can operate at baseload and also flexibly. Using Australia, China, the United Kingdom and the United Sates as case studies, this study demonstrates the viability of a set of power CCS technologies to cost-effectively decarbonise baseload, mid-merit and peaking generation in distinct power markets. * Carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies are essential for meeting globaltemperature targets at least cost. * Power CCS technologies can fulfil different operational roles. This study explores the potential to reduce the cost and accelerate the uptake of power CCS technologies. This study, undertaken on behalf of IEAGHG by Element Energy (now a part of ERM), explores the role of CCS in decarbonising small-scale industry and power generation applications.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is the process of capturing CO2 formed during power generation from a natural gas power plant and storing it.

The U.S. is already leading the world with over 22 million metric tons per annum (MMTPA) of point source carbon capture capacity across operational projects.2 Operational carbon capture capacity in the U.S. is currently forecasted to grow to approximately 120 MMTPA by 2030 based on announced projects as of November 2023.3 To meet the net zero goal over the next 26 years, the U.S. will need to increase carbon capture and permanent safe storage4 capacity to between 400 to 1,800 MMTPA, a 18-80X increase from current deployments.5 Point source carbon capture is essential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions from large scale power and industrial facilities, which account for approximately 700 and 1,600 MMTPA of U.S. CO2 emissions, respectively, as of 2022.6 For several sectors, such as natural gas processing and ethanol, the cost of capture relative to current tax credit values means that projects near viable storage sites are widely accepted as economically attractive today.5,7 To meet decarbonization goals, however, carbon capture deployment is necessary across a wider range of CO2 sources, including those where project economics are still developing.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) reduces the operational GHG emissions from fossil fuel power plants by selectively capturing CO₂ from the plant’s exhaust flue, preventing it from entering the atmosphere. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a technology that reduces GHG emissions from fossil fuel-powered electricity generation facilities by selectively capturing CO₂ from the power plant’s exhaust flue, preventing it from entering the atmosphere. CCS can also be applied to capture CO₂ from other industrial facilities that generate emissions from fuel combustion or production processes, like cement or ethanol production plants, or from biomass energy power plants. While CCS can reduce the operational CO₂ emissions from fossil-fueled power plants, large-scale deployment of this technology will likely drive continued production and use of coal and gas.
