This review systematically analyzes barriers to large-scale deployment of post-combustion chemical absorption CCS. The gap between capture costs ($60-150/tCO2) and carbon prices ($5-10/tCO2) is a major economic obstacle, compounded by high …

Chang Y.

This paper analyzes investment strategies for CCUS deployment in China using a real options-based multiphase unequal investment model. It optimizes investment timing and scale under uncertainty, offering implications for policy and industry…

Victor N.

This paper analyzes the impact of the U.S. 45Q tax credit on CCUS deployment using MARKAL modeling, and examines adaptation by other North American governments (Canada, Mexico). It shows that tax incentives enhance the economics of carbon c…
