CCUS in Action
CCUS Projects
There are 700+ CCUS sites in development across the world, with 77 already in operation (GCCSI 2025).
CCUS in the EU/EEA
CCUS is rapidly expanding across Europe, with projects underway from the North to the South. Facilities for CO2 capture, transport, and storage are advancing in Denmark, the Netherlands, Norway, Germany, Sweden, Italy, and Greece, among others. The EU backs these efforts through major funding programs, such as the Innovation Fund, Connecting Europe Facility and Horizon Europe, while Member States are providing additional support (e.g., SDE++ in the Netherlands) and addressing regulatory gaps, making CCUS a growing reality in the European Economic Area.
CCUS in the UK
The UK is advancing CCUS across major industrial regions, with over 100 projects in development. CO2 transport and storage networks for the HyNet North West Cluster and the East Coast Cluster have reached financial close, with three associated emitter projects also under construction. The next clusters—the Acorn Project in Scotland and Viking CCS in England—have secured government development funding. Additional initiatives, including the publicly financed Peak Cluster, are progressing as the UK develops future routes to market.
