Westwood’s UK CCS Country Report <\/em>summarises and assesses the current state of the UK CCUS market. It analyses progress across key dimensions, such as the strength of CCS targets and strategy, funding and support mechanisms, and the economic potential of CCS for the UK.<\/p>\n

The 40-page report also provides a review of current carbon storage and capture projects. It acknowledges the challenges facing the UK’s CCS development, such as securing adequate funding and maintaining a sufficiently high carbon price through effective incentives.<\/p>\n

This is an invaluable resource for companies across the energy value chain seeking an overview of the sector, including the opportunities and risks associated with CCUS in the UK.<\/p>\n
