The Government recognises the potential of carbon capture and utilisation’ technologies, including for energy intensive industries, although many are at any early stage of development. The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has commissioned further analysis that will be reporting back mid-year to help assess the commercially exploitable technologies and the associated carbon abatement opportunities for the UK.
