Title : Research on Direct Air Carbon Capture: what is the global abatement potential?
Location Of Contract : SW1A 2AW
Industry : Research services - 73110000
Description : This procurement will engage an expert partner to provide country and regional estimates of Direct Air Carbon Capture [DACCs], at 5-yearly intervals out to 2050 and beyond. We know that a portfolio of GGR technologies will be required to balance the residual emissions of difficult to decarbonise sectors as part of action to mitigate climate change. As a carbon removal technology, DACCs has a role in offsetting aviation and agriculture and other residual emissions from hard to abate sectors. DACCs is a first of a kind 'silver bullet' carbon removal technology that need not be limited to contemporaneous emissions. As a nascent technology, with currently only a dozen or so direct air capture plants worldwide, its potential is game-changing, while its realisation is far from guaranteed. There are several limitations on the scalability of DACCs, such as, as yet, unknown capital and operational expenditures, infrastructure and geological storage capacity. It has the capacity for broad deployment however, with no geographical constraints.By incorporating robust projections of DACCs into our modelling we will achieve a better understanding of global carbon mitigation costs and viability of high ambition climate change mitigation targets. This will enhance the evidence base t...
