Carbon Emission Storage Facilities Doubled Globally

Carbon emission storage facilities are emerging as a significant step in combating climate change. In recent years, the number of these facilities has rapidly increased worldwide.
Carbon capture and storage technology is used to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and waste energy production. This technology captures emissions before they reach the atmosphere and stores them underground.
The United States leads with 19 facilities in this field, followed by China and Canada with 14 and 7 facilities, respectively. Last year, 51 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions were stored underground thanks to these facilities.
Currently, 40 facilities are under construction in 14 countries worldwide. While 11 of these projects are located in the United States, significant developments are also occurring in other countries.
Carbon emission storage facilities offer a vital solution in line with countries' climate commitments. These systems have the potential to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
