Carbon capture and storage explained: with chocolate

If you’ve been paying attention to the news over the past few weeks, you’ll have heard a lot of discussion about carbon capture and storage (CCS).

Using chocolate as an analogy
for carbon capture and storage.

We’re researching a broad portfolio of energy technologies to ensure we can keep the lights on, remain economically competitive and importantly, lower emissions. CCS is one key solution, and our researchers are on the case.

But what exactly is CCS? How does it work? What can it achieve? How can I sound super-smart when I’m with my friends and the topic comes up?  Never fear, we gentle science folk are here to help give you the scoop on this technical topic (including the best kind of analogy: a chocolate-based one).
