About the CCSU Investibility Issue

Given that Carbon Capture, Storage and Utilisation (CCSU, AKA CCUS) is proven technology and an integral part of any credible plan to reach net zero by 2050, why is it yet to see any significant private investment outside the US?

Government-backed demonstration projects were a crucial first phase, but mass scale-up requires private sector buy-in.

What is the Tetra Tech RPS Energy City Debate?

On this panel of representatives from across the CCSU value chain, we’ll discuss the primary issues preventing the mass roll-out of CCSU projects – and shape our collective thinking on how to overcome them.

As an international consultant, RPS has been involved in CCSU projects at key lifecycle stages. This has refined our thoughts around the barriers to investment and what we believe can be done to overcome these issues. We’re keen to get the debate started by sharing our thoughts, and soliciting insights gained by our industry peers, in order to spark the CCSU private adoption phase and investment options for this critical technology.

Moving the conversation forward

This debate, by panellists with real world insights and experience to share, will be invaluable to organisations looking to enter the CCSU market:

• Those looking to operate carbon storage facilities
• Financiers
• Analysts
• Insurers
• Policy makers

However, this isn’t just a “talking shop”. The debate session will be followed by a networking lunch, offering the chance to meet industry peers and get ready to take the next critical steps on the CCSU mass roll-out journey.
