Abstract: This study reviewed the current situation of carbon capture and storage (CCS) development in the UK, mainly within the last 10 years in general. It looked at the positive ways to implement the CCS technologies, including the geological advantages, potential sector growth, financial incentives and the support in the policies. Current projects were brought forward together with university and industry research. Some concerns and limitations of applying CCS technologies were discussed. Finally, the conclusion was made that the UK is in a good position to implement CCS technologies and would become a global leader in CCS development, providing that the first four trials were successful.
