Environmental impacts of emerging carbon capture technologies for industrial decarbonisation

Summary

This report addresses the challenge of understanding and mitigating the wider environmental and health impacts of emerging carbon capture technologies (CCT) essential for industrial decarbonisation in the UK, beyond just their CO2 capture performance. The Environment Agency conducted a review of scientific literature from January 2020 to March 2024 to identify these impacts and assess trends across various industrial sectors. This comprehensive study is completed, providing insights and recommendations to guide future CCT development and deployment towards Net Zero goals.
