All new Carbon Capture failure…again!

From Just Have a Think.

Fossil Fuel Carbon Capture and Storage yet again under-delivered in 2025 when the Norwegian state oil company, Equinor, was forced to admit the Sleipner CCS facility was capturing only about 10% of it’s claimed 1 million tonnes per year. Similar missed CCS targets are happening all over the world. And now new research has found that the amount of realistically available global storage capacity is also roughly only just over a tenth of the amount claimed by big oil and gas.
