Top 10 Global Carbon Capture Projects of 2023

With this global commitment to CCS, it is time to shift our focus to real solutions on the ground. We have compiled a list Top 10 Carbon Capture Projects in 2023 . These projects are at the forefront of carbon capture technology, embodying the spirit of innovation and sustainability needed to effectively combat climate change.

Here you will find a detailed report that profiles each of these projects in terms of size, partners, efficiency, types of technologies and their suppliers, the company's industry and the final destination of the captured carbon.

  1. The goal of the Go4Zero project is to become the first carbon neutral cement plant in Belgium.
  2. The goal of the Wabash CO2 Sequestration Project is capture and store carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from an ammonia plant in West Terre Haute, Indiana, USA.
  3. The Oil Sands CCUS Pathways to Net Zero (ALB) (14 facilities) . An initiative by six of Canada's largest oil sands producers to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from their operations by approximately 22 million TPA by 2030 in Alberta, Canada.
  4. CalCC Lhoist Air Liquide Lime Plant Rety Project is seeking to decarbonise the Lhoist lime plant in Réty, France. Lime is one of the "difficult to reduce" industries, because during its production, CO2 is produced primarily by the decomposition of limestone.
  5. Project Anthemis , Belgium.
  6. The Rocky Mountain Carbon Project , The Rocky Mountain Carbon Project in Alberta, Canada, is the world's largest BECCS (Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage) initiative to capture biogenic CO2 emissions from a forest-based renewable materials facility.
  7. Calpine Baytown Energy Center (TX) Carbon Capture Project , Texas, USA
  8. Rohm chemical factory decarbonization project , Germany.
  9. South Texas Direct Air Capture Hub (DAC 1) is set to become the world's largest direct air capture (DAC) facility in the Texas Permian Basin, USA Updated since inception in 2019.
  10. Removr large plant DCA Project , Iceland. The first operational DAC plant that relies on zeolites was commissioned in 2022 in Norway, with plans to scale the technology up to 2,000 TPA CO2 by 2025 through the Removr project.
