Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage: A Massive Case of Resource Misallocation

Published December 9, 2025 by Andy Hira, Stefan Pauer, and Andrew S. Wright

Overview

We evaluate the feasibility of Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) as strategy for reducing Canada's carbon emissions. Our economic analysis finds that while technically feasible, CCUS is prohibitively expensive, diverting resources from clean energy investment and potentially prolonging fossil fuels' hold on the economy. We argue CCUS should be reserved for hard-to-abate sectors like cement and steel, rather than treated as a broad climate solution.
