Carbon Capture
and Storage
Bringing Carbon Capture and Storage to Market
Factbook version
The demonstration phase is not moving fast enough, projects will only be driven by
upstream oil and gas activities in the years to come
The demonstration of large-scale CCS projects has progressed far more slowly than is required to mitigate climate change. Financing
for large demonstration projects (below $3 billion a year, with no sign of an increase) remains considerably below that of renewable
energy sources such as wind and solar ($131 billion and $75 billion in 2011, respectively). With growth of only 6% per year over the
last five years and a forecasted 52MtCO2/year in operation by 2017, the IEAs recommended pathway towards decarbonization
appears out of reach (37% annual growth required and 255MtCO2/year stored by 2020 in the 2DS Scenario)
Nearly all large projects operating or under construction are associated with oil and gas production, wherein the CO2 is either captured
from natural gas processing plants or is sold for use in EOR. This trend is likely to continue for the next decade, as passive CO2
storage adds complexity and bears regulatory risks, public-acceptance issues and reservoir discovery costs that EOR can avoid. To
date, no CCS power plant has reached a final investment decision without both EOR revenues and strong government financial
support. In 2017, over 90% of the operating CCS capacity will be associated with the upstream oil and gas sector.
There are grounds for optimism that CCS deployment may accelerate after 2020
Growing demand for the beneficial reuse of CO2 for EOR should drive CCS forwards during this decade and help to demonstrate the
technology, in conjunction with large government grants. Oil prices above $100/bbl have tended to boost CO2 contract prices above
$30/tCO2, greatly improving CCS-EOR economics.
China is also rapidly driving down the cost of capture, having openly expressed the ambition to build capture-only coal power plants for
its own needs and to export low-cost capture technologies. The levelized cost of electricity from coal-fired power plants with CCS
using either post- or pre-combustion technology could decrease by 14%-21% after the first 100 GW are installed.
Looking beyond 2020, more stringent carbon policies will be required to develop CCS beyond upstream oil and gas and at the scale
needed to tackle climate change. CCS may become a must-have for climate mitigation, as CO2 emissions are being locked-in by
existing plants. In addition to public funding and a more robust carbon-pricing system, public and private sector actions could contribute
to CCS wider adoption by: leveraging CCS-EOR projects; implementing stable regulation governing long-term investments; exploring
new business models to assist the formation of partnerships in integrated CCS projects, etc

The number of patents related to carbon capture has boomed since the beginning of the century, reaching 9,160 at the end 2007. 68% of them have
been filed in the US. 80% have been filed by national or multinational corporations. Around 20% of patents for clean coal are connected with integrated
gasification combined cycle (IGCC) plants - so called capture ready for pre-combustion.

Growth rates are a function of installed generation capacity (GW) or installed storage rate capacity (MtCO2/year) for CCS. The current rate for wind and
biofuels is the annual average growth rate from 2005 -2010. For solar PV, biomass, geothermal, and CSP, this period is 2004-2009. The current rate and
status of nuclear includes capacity under construction. Required growth rate in the 450 scenario is for the period 2010-2020

* Cost of CO2 avoided with current technologies in the US relative to coal, except for CCS (gas), which is compared with a gas-fired power plant. Coal is taken as the
reference plant because it emits the highest level of CO2 of all power-generation technologies. The cost of CO2 avoided can be negative, implying that the technology is
more cost-effective than coal even without considering the emissions impact. This is the case for hydropower and conventional geothermal power.
** Economic potential of each technology to contribute at the global level to the lowest-cost pathway to limiting global warming to 2C compared with business-asusual projection by 2050 (IEAs 2DS and 6DS scenario in Energy Technology Perspective, 2012)

Forecasts are based on BNEF estimates for LCOE reductions from 2011 to 2020, applied to ranges taken from the sources listed below.
The LCOE of CCS has not been reduced, as learning has yet to start for this technology.
Estimates are ranges of LCOE in the United States with current available technologies, and are derived from 19 international studies gathered by the Global
CCS Institute in The costs of CCS and other low-carbon technologies issues brief 2011, No.2.
Estimates for EGS are highly hypothetical and derive from models from MIT, 2006; and Huenges and Frick, 2010.

China and the Middle-East will be of prime importance for CCS, but not before
the end of the decade
CHINA: FOCUS ON CAPTURE, NOT ON PASSIVE
CO2 STORAGE
Enormous potential for CCS (coal power plants)
World leader in pilot-scale power CCS
R&D on capture-ready plants should drive down
costs
48
PERSPECTIVES RECOMMENDATIONS
AND CONCLUSIONS
Recommendations
Public authorities
Leverage EOR projects to enable CCS to take off:
Reward for emissions avoided by storing CO2 along with EOR
Promote collaboration in R&D and demonstration among major oil-producing countries
49
PERSPECTIVES RECOMMENDATIONS
AND CONCLUSIONS
Conclusions
1. Meeting international CO2 emissions-reduction targets will be extremely difficult to achieve without
CCS
2. CCS projects are technically feasible at large scale and with moderate abatement costs per ton of
CO2 avoided. No R&D gap justify to wait before building demonstration projects
3. Demonstration projects are necessary to refine understanding of CO2 sequestration mechanisms
4. R&Ds priority is reducing the cost of CO2 capture
5. Projects associated with oil & gas production can be commercial. It will remain the main driver in
the CCS industry in the current decade
6. Projects remain at a standstill for power generation and heavy industry when targeting passive
CO2 storage
7. Despite governments promises, demonstration is has been far slower than what was projected
8. IEA has just renewed its call for action to develop CCS, listing it in its 2013 priorities
9. Public stakeholders needs increase support for CCS and private-sector needs to develop overall
awareness of the benefits of CCS
