The password is 'CCUSAdvisors!'.
In 2018 the Government published the CCUS Action Plan, which set out our ambition to have the option to deploy CCUS during the 2030s, subject to costs coming down sufficiently, and our commitment to enable the deployment of the first CCUS facility in the UK, to be commissioning from the mid-2020s. It also highlighted that the barriers to deployment of CCUS are primarily commercial, not technical, and set out the actions we were taking through our Review of CCUS Delivery and Investment Frameworks to identify investable commercial models. In 2019, Government consulted on potential business models for CCUS, across power CCUS, industrial CCUS, CO2 transport and storage infrastructure, and hydrogen production with CCUS.
This potential procurement will seek engineering and technical advisory support for:
- Further development of business models for CCUS, including testing potential models from an engineering and technical perspective, followed by any engineering and technical advice required on implementation of these models.
- Any potential commercial negotiations which Government chooses to enter in to with CCUS projects.
