Carbon Capture: Why We Need Next-Generation Technologies

For carbon capture to take off commercially, considerable cost reductions are needed. There are a number of next-generation technologies under development that appear potentially game-changing, notably those where capture is inherently incorporated in the power generation process, eg chemical looping and the Allam Cycle. For the existing fleet there is considerable scope for improving the […]
