As of 2024, there were a total of five bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) facilities reportedly operating around the world. These facilities capture CO2 produced from bioenergy processes (such as ethanol fermentation) and then store it underground using one of two methods. Two facilities operate by storing CO2 through enhanced oil recovery by injecting it into oil fields to subsequently boost extraction, and three facilities operate using deep saline formations, where CO2 is permanently stored in underground saltwater-bearing rock layers.
