IPCC (2024): Report of the Expert Meeting on Carbon Dioxide Removal Technologies and Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage

IPCC, Eds: Enoki, T., Hayat, M, Pub. IGES, 2024

With the emergence of new carbon dioxide removal technologies and the generation of new empirical data on relevant sources and sinks, it may be valuable to consider new methods in the IPCC Guidelines. If adopted, these new methods will broaden the base of sinks and sources that inventory compilers should routinely monitor and facilitate their estimation and reporting in future national inventories. With this context in mind, the IPCC tasked the Task Force on National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (TFI), in January 2024, to develop a Methodology Report on Carbon Dioxide Removal Technologies, Carbon Capture Utilisation and Storage activities (Decision IPCC-LX- 9). An Expert Meeting on this topic was also mandated by the IPCC and held in Vienna on 1-3 July 2024. This was the first step along the journey to prepare the Methodology Report and this document is a Report of that Meeting.
