Is Carbon Capture and Storage more expensive than we thought?

5 comments

1. It’s probably cheaper to make methane and blue crude to remove the need for fossil fuel mining than it is to retrofit carbon capture and storage to fossil fuel burning facilities.

2. Did we ever think it wasn’t super expensive?

3. Billionaires can pay for it no sweat

4. No, no not really. It gets cheaper all the time as well.

   The only exception I would say is DAC, we really thought we could get the price down to $150/t by now, but it’s still in the ~$300-1000 range (cost varies tremendously depending on the process). We’re making good progress on that front though

5. Always has been.

   That’s why it keeps failing.
