The entire CCS value chain must be considered as one systemExperience from Knowledge Sharing 2026 shows that costs and risks in CCS projects often arise at the interfaces between capture, transport and storage. For new projects to succeed, the entire value chain needs to be planned and developed as one integrated system.
