Details

The Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change (IPCC) Working Group III (WGIII) contribution to the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) states that “The deployment of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to counterbalance hard-to-abate residual emissions is unavoidable if net zero CO2 or GHG emissions are to be achieved” and provides a summary of the role for CDR technologies in future mitigation pathways (Table TS.7).

The 2006 IPCC guidelines for the preparation of national inventories provides methods for the estimation of emissions from carbon capture, utilization and storage activities, however, after 20 years, a review is timely given the emergence of new technologies and new empirical data.

With these circumstances in mind, the IPCC Panel at its 60th Session, in January 2024, requested the Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (TFI) to develop a methodology report on Carbon Dioxide Removal Technologies, Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage.

We will be accepting applications to attend the scoping meeting for this report until 14 July, 11:59pm BST.
