Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a technique that focuses on mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and combating climate change. It comprises the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that are generated from industrial processes or power plants before it is released into the atmosphere. Besides this, it assists in reducing the environmental impact of large-scale industrial operations while transitioning to more sustainable energy sources. As it aids in producing geothermal energy, the demand for CCS is rising across the globe.

At present, the increasing popularity of international agreements to achieve emission reduction targets around the world is contributing to the growth of the market. Apart from this, the rising development of transportation and storage infrastructure for captured carbon dioxide is propelling the growth of the market. In line with this, the increasing adoption of this technique for producing chemicals and plastics is bolstering the growth of the market. Besides this, the growing focus on reducing carbon emissions due to rising temperature around the world is positively influencing the market. In addition, technological advancements in CCS that reduce costs and improve efficiency are strengthening the growth of the market. Furthermore, the rising awareness about environmental issues among the masses is bolstering the growth of the market.

Carbon Capture and Storage Market Trends/Drivers:
Rising focus on climate change mitigation
There is a rise in the adoption of CCS due to the increasing focus on climate change mitigation. Climate change is recognized as one of the most concerning global challenges, with rising temperatures, extreme weather events, and increasing sea-level, threatening ecosystems and human societies. As a result, countries worldwide are seeking effective strategies to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. CCS plays a crucial role in climate change mitigation by capturing CO2 emissions from various sources, such as power plants and industrial facilities. Apart from this, they prevent CO2 emissions from being released into the atmosphere. Countries can significantly reduce their carbon footprint and achieve emission reduction targets by implementing these effective techniques.
Favorable government initiatives to combat climate change
There is a rise in the need to combat climate change and reduce emissions across the globe. Governing agencies of various countries are promoting the adoption of CCS by implementing stringent environmental regulations and carbon pricing mechanisms. In line with this, these regulations impose limits on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and often require industries to adopt cleaner technologies or offset their emissions through this method. Apart from this, the introduction of carbon taxes, cap-and-trade systems, and emission reduction targets encourage several industries to invest in this technique as part of their compliance strategies. Companies are incorporating this technique into their operations to meet regulatory requirements, avoid financial penalties, and reputational risks for businesses.
Growing popularity of corporate social responsibility
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is becoming a core component of modern business practices. Consumers, investors, and stakeholders are increasingly preferring companies that commit to environmental sustainability. In addition, integrating CCS into their operations allows companies to proactively address their carbon emissions and demonstrate their dedication to mitigating climate change. Businesses can improve their environmental reputation and appeal to environmentally conscious consumers by reducing their carbon footprint through these techniques. Moreover, integrating sustainable practices into their operations enhances long-term viability and resilience that attracts socially responsible investors. This technique is becoming a powerful tool for companies to showcase their commitment to environmental sustainability.
Carbon Capture and Storage Industry Segmentation:
IMARC Group provides an analysis of the key trends in each segment of the global carbon capture and storage market report, along with forecasts at the global, regional and country levels from 2023-2028. Our report has categorized the market based on service, technology and end use industry.
Breakup by Service:
- Capture
- Transportation
