Unlocking the Potential of Carbon Capture

Presented by Huw Mason (EnergyQuest and Osprey Energy)

Abstract

In October 2024, EnergyQuest released its first report on Carbon Capture Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) titled “Unlocking the Potential of Carbon Capture”. The report provides an independent, in-depth review of Australia’s CCUS industry, outlining its necessity, key success factors for project execution, and the status and outlook of CCUS (including CCS) projects in the country. The technical analysis identifies five essential factors for a successful CCUS project, emphasising its crucial role in achieving the 2050 net-zero greenhouse gas emissions target. However, at the current rate of development, carbon capture and storage will fall short of meeting both global and Australian targets on time. Huw Mason will present an overview of the report’s findings and discuss the outlook for Australian projects.
