As the Energy Transitions Commission today argued the carbon capture and utilisation industry has a "vital but limited" role to play in the development of a net zero emission economy, both as a means of capturing industrial emissions and drawing CO2 down from the atmosphere. These concerns are justified.

Pyrolysis – heating in the absence of oxygen – produces biochar, a residue of nearly pure carbon, which can be infused into the soil, sequestering carbon indefinitely. Once all 16 hubs are completed, they will annually sequester over 500,000 tons of carbon – making this the UK’s biggest carbon removal initiative.
