Scottish and Viking Clusters join the UK Government CCUS Programme

The Carbon Capture and Storage Association (CCSA), the trade body for the Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS) industry in Europe, welcomes today’s announcement from the UK Government regarding the selection of the next two CCUS clusters in the UK to be built by 2030.

The Government has today announced that the Scottish Cluster and the Viking cluster in the Humber, will move forward to the next stage of deployment as ‘Track 2 clusters’, as part of the Government’s CCUS cluster sequencing programme. These clusters have the potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 19 million tonnes collectively, thereby making a significant contribution to the Government’s ambition to store 20-30 million tonnes of carbon dioxide by 2030, as well as helping to put the UK on a pathway to storing over 50million tonnes a year by 2035, in line with its Net Zero Strategy.
