The market is pivotal in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions like carbon dioxide (CO2) from industrial processes and industrial plants. Utilizing CCUS technology such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR), it captures CO2 for storage, preventing ozone depletion and reducing carbon footprints. Pre-combustion capture and oxy-fuel combustion are key methods employed, aligning with net zero emission targets and regulations. The market thrives on advancements in green energy sources and support from tax benefits to meet energy needs sustainably. Technology providers play a crucial role in developing and implementing CCS solutions, ensuring compliance with regulations and policies aimed at environmental protection. As industries prioritize sustainability, CCS emerges as a critical tool in addressing climate change, offering scalable solutions to manage industrial emissions and support global decarbonization efforts.
The hike in investments and advances in technology are notably driving the market growth. Investments in the R&D of next-generation capture technologies have increased over the years. Besides, governments are undertaking initiatives to promote CCS technology, and this is contributing to market growth. Both private and public sectors are investing heavily in the testing and commercialization of low-carbon technology as this reduces carbon costs and protects the environment.
Furthermore, advances in energy and CCS technologies enable the development of cost-effective solutions that tackle the global issue of climate change by reducing carbon emissions. According to the IEA, the adoption of CCS technologies will help in limiting the future rise in global temperature to around 2C. Many research institutes are investing in rigorous R&D to innovate new technologies. For instance, researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and ExxonMobil developed a new technique that uses porous material called a metal-organic framework, or MOF, modified with nitrogen-containing amine molecules to capture CO2. Therefore, these factors will boost the global market during the forecast period.
Apprehensions related to the application of enhanced oil recovery are an emerging trend in the market. One of the most widely considered applications of the CO2 captured in the first stage of the CCS project is its use in the oil and gas sector, with depleting production volumes. The CO2 is injected into the wells to replenish the naturally occurring gas drive of the reservoir, which is one of the most important factors deciding the reservoir production volumes. The release of the CO2, which is injected into the oil and gas reservoirs, also finds its way into the air as it comes up to the surface with the producing hydrocarbons, either dissolved in the oil or in an independent state.
Moreover, a lot of CO2 also escapes from the old and uncapped reservoirs into the surrounding formations, ultimately finding its way to the atmosphere. Therefore, the abovementioned factors undermine the entire concept of the introduction in the power generation sector to create a sustainable environment by reducing carbon emissions. Although the statistics proving the authenticity of the abovementioned conditions are still in their preliminary stages, the entirety of the concepts cannot be questioned. This has the potential to boost market growth during the forecast period.
Risks associated with CCS are major challenges impeding market growth. CCS has its own share of public apprehensions associated with it, as is the case with any emerging technology. The most significant of these apprehensions is related to the potential leakage hazards associated with the dedicated storage facilities. Although not established till now, many questions are being raised regarding the impact of leakage of stored CO2. This doubt, if proven true, will counter the whole purpose of implementing the CCS project, which is reducing the effectiveness of CCS as an option for climate change mitigation.
Further, many critical studies and research have analyzed the consequences of CO2 leaks from such storage sites. Any catastrophic or abrupt leakage of CO2 can lead to serious consequences in the form of the death of humans and animals. It has also been seen that pressure built up by injected CO2 could trigger small seismic events, which can also be regarded as a major challenge. Hence, factors like these will hinder market growth during the forecast period.

The market share growth by the pre-combustion segment will be significant during the forecast period. Pre-combustion technology is the most mature technology within the fast-developing global CCS market. In pre-combustion technology, CO2 is removed from the fuel prior to combustion. The process is carried out in a traditional steam reformer, where the fuel is converted to carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H2). The CO gas and steam are then converted into H2 and CO2. The separated H2 gas can be then used as fuel for both power and industry plants or vehicles.
