Closing the risk gap

How insurance innovation can accelerate CCS deployment.

Co-authored by Howden and Energex CCS

The rapid deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) is essential to achieving global decarbonisation goals, but its value chain brings complex risks.

From emitters to transport and storage, the CCS value chain introduces a unique set of technical, commercial and regulatory challenges – amplified by cross-border operations, complex ownership structures and the nascent nature of the industry.

In our latest article, and the first in a series of joint papers between Energex CCS and Howden, we explore why insurance will play a vital role in enabling CCS, and why new, innovative solutions are needed now.
