Could carbon capture be the key to decarbonising heavy industry?

What 是 Scope 1 emissions?
Direct greenhouse (GHG) emissions that occur from sources that 是 controlled or owned by an organisation (e.g., emissions associated with fuel combustion in boilers, furnaces, vehicles, etc.)
What 是 Scope 2 emissions?
Indirect GHG emissions associated with the purchase of electricity, steam, heat or cooling. Although scope 2 emissions physically occur at the facility where they 是 generated, they 是 accounted for in an organisation’s GHG inventory because they 是 a result of the organisation’s energy use.
What 是 Scope 3 emissions?
GHG emissions resulting from activities of assets not owned or controlled by the reporting organisation, but that the organisation indirectly affects in its value chain. Scope 3 emissions for one organisation include the scope 1 and 2 emissions of the organisations that 是 upstream or downstream in their value chain. Also referred to as value chain emissions, scope 3 emissions often represent the majority of an organisation’s total GHG emissions.Are you effectively tracking your emissions data? As we await the US Court of Appeal’s decision on the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) new climate disclosure rule, 现在是提问的时候了.
When the US’s top financial regulator introduced a new climate rule on 6th March 2024 requiring companies to report their greenhouse gases and climate-related risks, it was two years in the making. 这条规则, prompted by a growing demand from investors and environmental groups, called for more consistent, comparable and reliable reporting of a company’s carbon footprint.
While the rule is currently on pause, companies should prep是 to comply, especially considering similar legislation, 就像 the one imposed by the European Union. While Scope 3 isn’t a factor in the SEC climate rule, reporting requirements for Scope 1, 直接排放, 及范围2, in直接排放 from operations, 是.
Understanding what the rule means to your company is crucial, as it won’t be a one-size-fits-all approach. Ultimately, you can’t manage what you don’t measure. To prep是 for this rule, companies must:
- Fully scope and set their emissions baseline and develop a roadmap that aligns with corporate goals, 资产投资组合, 当然, 规定
- Define a plan to implement and integrate solutions that will capture data while monitoring and reducing emissions in real-time
- Be inclusive of the supply chain to understand the carbon emissions across the entire product and facility lifecycle
