Greenhouse gas removals: call for evidence for independent review

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) Secretary of State has commissioned an Independent Review of GGRs, to consider how options for GGRs, including large-scale power bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) and direct air carbon capture and storage (DACCS), can assist the UK in meeting our net zero targets, out to 2050. See the published Terms of Reference for further information on the Review. As part of the review, the Chair, Dr Alan Whitehead, will consult widely with a diverse range of stakeholders, including developers, offtakers, industry, and experts in different fields, through a series of roundtables and direct meetings. We are supplementing this with a broad call for evidence, giving the general public, developers and other organisations a chance to share their views on the opportunities and challenges of GGRs, the potential scale of emissions savings, and the economic cost of deploying GGRs. &#
