Show Notes

With net zero requiring 7 billion tonnes of CO2 to be captured and stored annually by 2050, Ruth Herbert, CEO of CCSA, highlights the long but critical road ahead for carbon capture technology.

The sector had a slow and tedious start, as the cost and disruption of CCS projects hindered deployment. Herbert explains, however, that the true cost of delaying CCS could be devastating for our net zero goals and that by moving early and decisively, we can ultimately ensure a cheaper transition.
