<p>How can the UK unlock export opportunities and wider economic benefits from the emerging CCUS sector on the road to net-zero? This event will bring together the authors of a new report: <em><a href="https://www.lse.ac.uk/granthaminstitute/publication/seizing-sustainable-growth-opportunities-from-carbon-capture-usage-and-storage-in-the-uk/">Seizing Sustainable Growth Opportunities from Carbon Capture\, Usage and Storage in the UK</a></em>\, and leading figures working on CCUS here\, to discuss the report’s analysis of the UK’s productive and innovative strengths along the CCUS value chain and the implications for growth across the country. </p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>In light of the latest IPCC report’s findings\, and with devastating wildfires and flooding in various parts of the world fresh in our memory\, the necessity to work towards global net-zero could not be clearer. As a technological solution for addressing some of the most challenging emissions\, CCUS needs to be deployed urgently in the UK and globally. This implies rapid increase in the global demand for associated technologies\, products and services – and consequently\, a significant export opportunity that can unlock wider economic benefits for the UK. These include contributing to a sustainable\, inclusive and resilient economic recovery from COVID-19\, levelling up across the country and redefining the UK’s role in the post-Brexit world.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The history of inconsistent policies on CCUS must be reversed in this decade\, and there must be coordinated investments in infrastructure\, innovation and skills to foster CCUS development in the UK. Drawing on its well-established oil and gas sector\, the UK has a mix of comparative advantages in production and innovation on which it can capitalise to drive sustainable growth from CCUS domestically while contributing to tackling climate change globally.</p>
