Carbon Centric inaugurated Norway's first Canopy by T.EN™ carbon capture unit on Oct. 16 at its Rakkestad waste-to-energy facility. Developed through an alliance between Shell Catalysts & Technologies and Technip Energies, the modular system has been operating since October 2025, capturing upward of 10,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually at above a 95% capture rate.
Direct air capture, e‑methanol production and CO₂ electrolysis technologies from Italy, France and the U.S. won the “Best CO₂ Utilisation 2026” award after a live vote at an international CCU conference, underscoring rapid progress in turning captured carbon into fuels and chemicals.
Brazil’s regulatory framework for carbon capture, utilization and storage is emerging as a critical component of the country’s strategy to decarbonize heavy industry. As global emissions continue to rise and natural sequestration processes prove insufficient, Brazil is developing a policy and regulatory approach aimed at addressing emissions from hard-to-abate sectors while maintaining industrial competitiveness.
Digital measurement and integrated data systems are shaping the success of CCUS projects by improving emissions visibility, reducing risk and enabling more confident design, operation and investment decisions.
Class VI wells are the regulatory and engineering backbone of large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects in the United States. As deployment accelerates, the ability to inject and permanently contain CO2 in deep saline formations has become central to project feasibility, regulatory approval and long-term performance.
