North America accounted for the highest number of projects in the commercial carbon capture and storage (CCS) facilities pipelines as of September 2024, with approximately 288. Of this total, 264 were in construction or development, while 24 were operational. By comparison, there were four operational CCS facilities in Europe. CCS technologies involve capturing CO2 emitted from the burning of fossil fuels or from other industrial processes and sequestering the CO2 in underground storage facilities.
