Some solutions to the climate crisis touted by the fossil fuel lobby are questionable, in particular carbon capture and storage (CCS). There are better ways for Governments to invest. A new report from the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) analysed the performance of 13 ‘flagship, large-scale’ CCS projects worldwide, accounting for about 55 percent of the global carbon capture capacity. The conclusions - CCS projects are more likely to fail than achieve their goals. Seven projects underperformed, two failed and one was mothballed. If governments rely on carbon capture to achieve net-zero it won’t work.
CCS appears to be a smoke-screen.
