North America accounted for just over half of global operating carbon dioxide (CO₂) capture capacity as of Q1 2024. North America had almost 300 projects in the commercial CCS facilities pipeline as of September 2024, with the United States accounting for the majority of these.
Distribution of operating carbon dioxide capture (CCS) capacity worldwide as of Q1 2024, by region
Includes large-scale projects with a capture capacity of more than 100 000 t per year (or 1 000 t per year for DAC). Capture projects for CO2 use are included as long as CO2 is used in fuels, chemicals, polymers, building materials, or for yield boosting. Within planned CCUS industrial hubs, only identified CO2 capture projects are included (not the full potential capture capacity of industrial hubs for which capture sources are not specified). Merchant hydrogen or ammonia excludes on-site hydrogen production in industry (included in other industry or other fuel transformation).
