CCUS: non-pipeline transport and cross-border CO2 networks - call for evidence

DESNZ·consultation·low·7 May 2024·source document

This consultation is open for responses

Respond to this consultation

Summary

DESNZ seeks evidence on non-pipeline CO2 transport and cross-border CO2 networks for CCUS deployment. The consultation covers value chain data, policy landscape, and deployment barriers for shipping and road/rail transport of captured carbon. This focuses on industrial decarbonisation infrastructure rather than electricity generation or grid systems.

Why it matters

Adjacent to electricity markets — CCUS affects industrial power demand and could influence generation investment decisions, but this consultation addresses transport logistics rather than market structure.

Memo

This call for evidence aims to gather information to improve government’s understanding of both non-pipeline transport (NPT) value chains and cross-border CO2 transport and storage networks, the costs associated with them, and the potential barriers to deployment. The call for evidence will look to gather views and evidence in 3 key areas: * NPT value chain data * CCUS policy landscape * Wider deployment considerations
