Includes all operational, under construction and planned CO2 capture facilities with an announced capacity of more than 100 000 t per year (or 1000 t per year for direct air capture facilities) and an announced timeline. Obtained by summing the announced capture capacity of capture, full chain and CCU projects in the IEA CCUS Projects Database.
