Study on the Potential for the Promotion of CCUS in ASEAN Countries

Shigeru Kimura, Kikuko Shinchi, Shunsuke Kawagishi, and Ulysses Coulmas

This ‘Study on the Potential for the Promotion of Carbon Dioxide Capture, Utilisation, and Storage in ASEAN’, uses a multi-aspect survey approach. The study covers findings on recent trends in policies, technologies, and business development from countries with experience in Carbon Dioxide Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS). It also looks into the potential for CCUS development in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and the East Asia Region. Based on discussions held at the 3rd East Asia Energy Forum, the report reiterates the important role CCUS can play in the region to achieve both energy transition and decarbonisation objectives. It also explores the potential and benefits of a regional collaborative approach, which is proposed as the Asia CCUS Network to create an enabling environment for business cases of CCUS.
