Pathways Alliance's major project is a potential $16.5 billion carbon capture and storage network to be constructed in northern Alberta. [4] As of May 2024, the proposed CCS network aims to capture CO2 emissions from over 20 oilsands facilities in northern Alberta and transport them via a 400-kilometer pipeline to an underground storage hub near Cold Lake.
The terms carbon capture and storage (CCS) and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) are closely related and often used interchangeably. [3] Both terms have been used predominantly to refer to enhanced oil recovery (EOR) a process in which captured CO 2 is injected into partially-depleted oil reservoirs in order to extract more oil.

The Alberta Carbon Trunk Line System is the largest carbon capture, utilization and storage system in the Alberta, Canada.The system, which cost 1.2 billion Canadian dollars, captures carbon dioxide from industrial emitters in the Alberta's Industrial Heartland and transports it to central and southern Alberta for secure storage in depleting oil reservoirs as part of enhanced oil recovery ...
This List of carbon capture and storage projects provides documentation of global, industrial-scale projects for carbon capture and storage. According to the Global CCS Institute, in 2020 some 40 million tons CO 2 per year capacity of CCS was in operation with 50 million tons per year in development. [1]

10 July 2009 major economies forum meeting on climate change: Australian Prime minister Mr Rudd, who shared the stage with US President Barack Obama, said the Global Carbon Capture and Storage Institute (CCS) would now be an international initiative led by Australia - which will act as a clearing house for research of new technologies, legislation to pave their path and as a vehicle to ...
A carbon bomb, or climate bomb, [34] is any new extraction of hydrocarbons from underground whose potential greenhouse gas emissions exceed 1 billion tonnes of CO 2 worldwide. In 2022, a study showed that there are 425 fossil fuel extraction projects (coal, oil and gas) with potential CO2 emissions of more than 1 billion tonnes worldwide.
Carbon capture may refer to: Carbon capture and storage , in which carbon dioxide is captured at industrial facilities and power plants Direct air capture , where carbon dioxide is captured directly from air
