Carbon Capture and Storage
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what recent assessment he has made of the progress made towards delivering 5 million tonnes of engineered carbon removals by 2030.
Answered by Michael Shanks
We remain committed to developing and deploying Greenhouse Gas Removals (GGRs) at scale in the UK, recognising the important role they play in achieving net zero. The Government will deliver an updated plan that sets out the policy package out to the end of Carbon Budget 6 in 2037 for all sectors of the economy, including GGRs, by October 2025. The Government will also set Carbon Budget 7 by June 2026, in line with our statutory duties.
