The global carbon capture and storage (CCS) market was USD 4.62 billion in 2022 and is expected reach USD 13.02 billion by 2030 with a CAGR of 13.80 % during the forecast period, i.e., 2023-2030. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is a technology designed to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from industrial processes and power generation. It involves capturing CO2 emissions at their source, transporting them, and storing them underground to prevent their release into the atmosphere. The demand for CCS is primarily driven by the urgent need to combat climate change. Governments, industries, and environmental organizations are pushing for CCS implementation to achieve carbon neutrality targets and mitigate the impacts of global warming. Additionally, industries with high emissions, like energy generation and heavy manufacturing, seek CCS as a means to decarbonize their operations; however, challenges for market growth include high initial investment costs, regulatory uncertainties, and public acceptance issues related to CO2 storage sites. Additionally, the availability of suitable geological formations for long-term CO2 storage is a critical factor influencing the widespread adoption of CCS technology
In February 2023, the U.S. administration’s Department of Energy (DOE) announced $2.5 billion in funding for two carbon management programs to significantly mitigate the carbon emissions from power generation and hard-to-abate industrial operations. The first program, Carbon Capture Large-Scale Pilots, will receive up to $820 million for up to 10 projects focused on de-risking transformational carbon capture technologies and the second program, Carbon Capture Demonstration Projects, will receive up to $1.7 billion for six projects. The projects target demonstrating commercial-scale carbon capture technologies integrated with the transportation of carbon dioxide and geologic storage infrastructure.

By Technology Type, pre-combustion carbon capture technology dominates the global CCS market.
Based on the technology type, the global CCS market is segmented into pre-combustion carbon capture, post-combustion carbon capture, and oxy-fuel combustion carbon capture. Pre-combustion carbon capture technology dominated the global CCS market in 2022 owing to its efficacy in capturing CO2 before it is released from power plants or industrial facilities. Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) plants exemplify this technology by converting coal into synthesis gas, allowing for efficient CO2 capture. This approach is favored for its high capture rates and compatibility with various fuel sources, making it a prominent choice for reducing emissions in the energy sector.
