This annual publication provides data on CO2 emissions from fuel combustion and greenhouse gas emissions for over 140 countries broken down by fuel and by sector. Emissions were calculated using IEA energy databases and the default methods and emission factors from the Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories.

Oil, coal and natural gas will remain the world’s dominant sources of energy over the next decades, with resulting carbon dioxide emissions set to increase to unsustainable levels. However, technologies that help reduce CO2 emissions from fossil fuels can reverse this trend. CO2 capture and storage (CCS) is particularly promising. CCS takes CO2 from large stationary sources and stores it in deep geological layers to prevent its release into the atmosphere.
Responding to a G8 Gleneagles request, this study documents progress toward the development of CCS, covering capture, transportation and storage technologies and their costs; storage capacity estimates, regional assessment of CCS potential; legal and regulatory frameworks; public awareness and outreach strategies; and financial mechanisms and international mechanisms.
It also discusses the role of CCS in ambitious new energy scenarios that aim for substantial emissions reduction. This publication elaborates the potential of CCS in coal-fuelled electricity generation and estimates for capture in the industry and fuel transformation sectors. Finally, it assesses the infrastructure needed to process and transport large volumes of CO2.
Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) is an important technology for achieving global net zero emissions. Momentum on CCUS has increased in recent years, but the deployment of projects has remained relatively flat. Emerging business models are opening the door to new investment opportunities, and with that bringing new challenges to be overcome.
The scale-up needed to reach net zero emissions by mid-century represents a major undertaking, and policy support and co-ordination are crucial. Policy makers have a suite of tools at their disposal to create the conditions necessary to drive long-term investment, enabling industry to take the next step forward and push CCUS into a viable and sustainable commercial market.
This IEA CCUS Handbook provides governments with a policy toolkit to tackle the overarching challenges to CCUS deployment. It gives an overview of existing policies that have helped launch CCUS projects to date and identifies the main challenges to future large-scale deployment. The handbook also highlights international best practices, drawing on existing and proposed government efforts to address these challenges.
The handbook is supported by our CCUS Projects Database1 and complements the IEA CCUS Handbooks on Legal and Regulatory Frameworks for CCUS and on CO2 Storage Resources and their Development.
Para hacer realidad las ambiciones de energía limpia de Colombia y permitir la movilización necesaria de financiamiento e inversión, el gobierno ha establecido una serie de estrategias políticas importantes, las cuales incluyen la Política de Crecimiento Verde de 2018, la Estrategia Nacional de Economía Circular de 2019 y la nueva Política de Transición Energética de 2022. Todas estas políticas de alto nivel señalan el papel que pueden desempeñar las soluciones de energía limpia, como la bioenergía sostenible y la conversión de residuos en energía, para apoyar los objetivos de descarbonización. Estas soluciones también pueden lograr una serie de otras ambiciones socioeconómicas, incluida una mayor confiabilidad del suministro de energía, un mejor acceso a energía asequible y confiable en áreas que no están conectadas a la red eléctrica nacional y cantidades reducidas de desechos que van a rellenos sanitarios de capacidad limitada. Este informe tiene como objetivo apoyar las ambiciones de energía renovable de Colombia, centrándose en las tendencias actuales de energía limpia, las oportunidades para la bioenergía y las medidas que pueden aumentar la financiación y la inversión en esas soluciones. A través de cinco estudios de caso de Brasil, Chile, Colombia, India y Turquía, el informe también considera el entorno propicio y las lecciones aprendidas de los desarrollos de bioenergía en diferentes países.
