Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) capacity must rise by more than even the most optimistic scenarios over the next few years if the world is to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, according to an analysis of various net-zero scenarios by Transition Economist. Carbon economists have long warned of a looming “emissions gap” in net-zero scenarios—the difference between how much CO₂ can realistically be mitigated from the global economy and the amount that must be achieved to hit global warming targets. Many argue this looming gap is the strongest argument for the development of CCUS.  The IEA’s Net-Zero Scenario—an emissions trajectory consistent with limiting the global temp
