Building critical carbon capture infrastructure, helping the UK deliver on #NetZero.

Joined September 2021
Today’s @FT looks at the progress being made on CCS projects in the UK, which will play a crucial role in helping the government meet its #NetZero targets. #VikingCCS, expected to be one of the largest CCS projects in the world, aims to store 10 million tonnes of CO2 a year by 2030.

#DYK that the Committee for Climate Change stated in 2022 that there is no route to net zero by 2050, nor decarbonising industry while safeguarding jobs, without deploying CCS at scale? #VikingCCS will help accelerate progress, with the project aiming to store 10 million tonnes of CO2 a year by 2030.

#DidYouKnow that #VikingCCS could unlock up to £7bn of investment across the full CO2 capture, transport and storage value chain between 2025 and 2035? This will help to create over 10,000 jobs during construction, providing an estimated £4bn of gross value add to the #Humber and surrounding area. Find out more: vikingccs.co.uk/about/benefi…
