Abstract

This brief explores a new Scottish CO2 Transport and Storage (T&S) industry linked to the Acorn CCS project, with capacity to sequester 3.8Mt of emissions from the Scottish cluster and a further 2.6Mt from overseas, could deliver a sustained uplift in UK GDP, create jobs across the economy and reduce the near- to mid-term public budget implications of intervention to guarantee utilisation of Scottish T&S capacity.
