The German Government has announced that it will enable Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and facilitate Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) on an industrial scale, paving the way for a future CO2 pipeline network.
To do so, the Government introduced a long-awaited draft bill to revise the Carbon Dioxide Act (Kohlendioxid-Speicherungsgesetz (KSpG)). Since its introduction to Parliament, the bill has undergone important changes during the ongoing legislative process.
