Carbon capture, transport and storage (CCS) is a technology that prevents large amounts of carbon dioxide from fossil fuels entering the atmosphere.

CCS is the third most important measure to limit global warming by two degrees according to the International Energy Agency. GATEWAY, funded by Horizon 2020, will work towards accelerating a shift towards deployment of CCS in Europe through a cross-border CO2 transport infrastructure.

CCS is not profitable under the current energy regime, and will depend on the regulatory framework, incentives and the future cost of emissions. This is what the GATEWAY project will address

CCS is important to cut CO2 emissions. These emissions can be stored permanently in geological formations beneath the seabed in the North Sea. Gateway researchers found no tehnological reasons to prevent CCS across Europe - but there are some legal obstructions.
