Explaining successful and failed investments in U.S. carbon capture and storage using empirical and expert assessments

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Most studies of deep decarbonization find that a diverse portfolio of low-carbon energy technologies will be required, including carbon capture and storage (CCS) that mitigates emissions from fossil fuel power plants and industrial sources.
