What to expect at CCUS Conference 2025
The CCUS Conference serves as a vital platform to advance knowledge and collaboration in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS). By promoting insight into cutting-edge developments, addressing gaps in policy and regulation, fostering integration across projects, and exploring sustainable industrial applications, the event aims to drive impactful progress in reducing CO₂ emissions and combating climate change.
Together with industry experts, we have tried to identify the key challenges facing the CCUS industry. These challenges will be discussed and debated at the CCUS Conference Norway on 12 June:
Key Challenges
- Transition from pilots to commercialization: Many CCUS projects rely on government funding but lack sustainable business models.
- Legislation gaps: Significant policy and regulatory issues must be addressed.
- Lack of integrated value chains: There are no fully developed solutions covering all steps, from capture to storage.
- Demand for CO₂ and circular use: More opportunities are needed for industrial utilization of CO₂ that do not result in emissions back into the atmosphere.
- Financing: How can the CCS industry become economically sustainable and attractive to investors?
- Political priorities: Who should bear the cost of CCS, and how can political will accelerate its development
