Report Outlines Trillion Dollar Market Opportunity

Today the Global CO2 Initiative announced major findings and recommendations from its Roadmap for the Global Implementation of Carbon Dioxide Utilization Technologies at the ICEF2016 Roadmap Launch Event at COP22 in Morocco. The Roadmap offers a market assessment and recommendations for the carbon-based products industry (CBPI). The report shows that through broad scale commercialization of products derived from CO2 there are sizable market opportunities while mitigating CO2 emissions.

Tim Stiles: The market for carbon use in 15 years could be over $1 trillion

Note: This article was carried over from CO2 Sciences as a result of our merger.

Tim Stiles, Global Chair of KPMG’s IDAS Practice, mentioned The Global CO2Initiative during a panel discussion titled “Critical Support for Innovative Finance” at the FT Investing for Good conference in early December. In his comments, he states that “…the market for carbon use in 15 years could be over $1 trillion, which would reduce CO2 output by 12-15%. Now that’s very intriguing, because suddenly you’re addressing this problem and providing a commercial return.”

Financing carbon capture: corporate partners lead the way

Note: This article was carried over from CO2 Sciences as a result of our merger.

Addressing climate change will require tremendous investment in low- and zero-carbon energy technologies. Estimates are as high as $1 trillion per year (PDF) through 2030.

Some of that investment must be in carbon capture technology, which can reduce emissions from both the power and industrial sectors. Carbon capture could provide 13 percent of global emissions reductions through 2050.

Sequestering Carbon at the Bottom of the Pyramid: Actionable Science for Climate Change Mitigation View the slides (PDF: 23MB) Most climate change mitigation measures can only focus on reducing future emissions. This is particularly true for interventions and policies that target the most important emission source, the burning of fossil fuels. However, forest and agriculture…
