Cost of CO2 Storage
The Global CCS Institute’s latest report, Cost of CO₂ Storage, explores how geological and operational factors influence storage costs. It finds that boundary conditions (whether a reservoir behaves as an open or closed system) are the key determinant, shaping the economics of CO₂ storage and informing scalable, cost-effective deployment strategies.
