CCUS: A Summary of BEIS’ Cluster Sequencing for Carbon Capture Usage and Storage Deployment: Phase-1

This month the UK Government issued an updated timetable and submissions guidance for cluster sequencing for Carbon Capture Usage and Storage (CCUS) deployment. With this paper came a number of updates across its CCUS programme including:

• the CCS Infrastructure Fund (CIF);
• the Industrial CCUS Business Models;
• Power CCUS Business Models;
• T&S Business Models; and
• CCUS Supply Chains: a roadmap to maximise the UK’s potential.

A “cluster” is defined as a transport and storage (T&S) network and associated first phase of at least two CO2 capture projects.
