CaptureX aims to develop new knowledge about drivers, opportunities and challenges for realizing large-scale CCS (carbon capture and storage) and CCU (carbon capture and utilization).
Departing from the multidisciplinary sustainability transitions research field, CaptureX builds on a socio-technical perspective to analyse the innovation dynamics related to the establishment of CCS. The project investigates innovation processes across the value chain of CCS and carbon capture and utilization (CCU) and elaborates on how the technology strategies and business models of key industrial actors and regional industrial transformation processes may affect CCUS innovation, and vice versa. CaptureX also investigates the role of legitimation processes and policies in supporting, (or potentially hampering) the development and diffusion of CCUS technologies, and finally explores the role of CCUS as a mitigation strategy in future energy systems and Norwegian energy exports.
