Everything said about CCS, oldest first

Apr 7, 2022 bullish
Prediction Not checkable as stated
Bataille: Technical carbon dioxide removal will reach 1 to 5 gigatons annually
“The key CDR technologies, in my mind, will be direct air capture with CCS, because what CCS does is it takes the CO₂ taken by the direct air capture unit and pushes it back underground, and probably some forms of geological weathering, and it's going to be a b…”
Dr. Chris Bataille Apr 7, 2022 ▶ 34:12 Carbon capture and storage is making a comeback
Apr 7, 2022 bearish
Opinion
Bataille: CCS is not strictly necessary for steel decarbonization
“If somebody tells you that we absolutely need CCS for steel, that's just not the case.”
Dr. Chris Bataille Apr 7, 2022 ▶ 35:13 Carbon capture and storage is making a comeback
Apr 7, 2022 positive
Prediction Not checkable as stated
Bataille: CCS is essential for cement due to lack of alternative chemistries
“We're going to need it for cement because there are no alternative chemistries coming down the pipe anytime soon, and there's a lot of buildings that need to be built.”
Dr. Chris Bataille Apr 7, 2022 ▶ 25:36 Carbon capture and storage is making a comeback
May 25, 2023 neutral
Opinion
Lubershane: Economically viable CCS will compete directly with grid energy storage
“To the extent CCS becomes, you know, proven and economically viable, I think it serves as a competitive force on, you know, any of these opportunities for grid storage and for energy storage over time, because it, you It's probably the next best alternative.”
Andy Lubershane May 25, 2023 ▶ 56:34 Four ways to store sunlight
Jul 20, 2023 negative
Opinion
Emily Grubert: Climate policy should minimize overall carbon capture and storage deployment
“So in my view, I think we need to at least try to get to a world that minimizes the amount of CCS that we're doing, whether that is for mitigation or removal, and basically just because it's infrastructurally intensive, it's energy intensive, all of these kind…”
Dr. Emily Grubert Jul 20, 2023 ▶ 40:30 The good and bad of carbon capture
Jul 20, 2023 neutral
Opinion
Emily Grubert: Cement may be the only sector where CCS is indispensable
“I think with regard to this category of CCS, I sometimes can convince myself that cement might be the only thing in this category where you need CCS to mitigate emissions from something.”
Dr. Emily Grubert Jul 20, 2023 ▶ 13:49 The good and bad of carbon capture
Apr 17, 2025
Assertion Supported
Friedmann: 40 global CCS facilities capture 60M tons of CO2 annually
“And we have deployed CCS on some 40 facilities around the world. We're capturing around sixty million tons a year and injecting it underground.”
Julio Friedmann Apr 17, 2025 ▶ 7:05 Serving data center load with carbon capture
