Sweden could benefit from carbon dioxide storage opportunities abroad. Carbon capture and storage (CCS), including bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS), could contribute to climate change mitigation strategies. However, the 2020s is not the first time that CCS is high on the agenda.
Sweden also supports carbon removal research and development primarily through the Industrial Leap initiative. Through its 2017 target, Sweden has committed to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2045.
Shortly after the oil crisis in 1972, Sweden drew its attention to many domains of low-carbon energy research, with a strong focus on energy eficiency, solar, wind and bioenergy (Nordic Energy Research, 2015). This is further exemplified by the increasing number of patents filed in these categories (Figure 44).
There has been a shift in Sweden from mapping domestic storage capacity to focusing on near- to mid-term storage of CO 2 in Norway. Previous mappings of the potential for CCS in the Baltic Sea region have included Swedish storage capacity [18, 45], however, there has still not been any development of storage infrastructure.
The Swedish government has attributed SEK 36 billion (EUR 3,3 billion) for bio-CCS from 2026 to 2046, to be distributed across those who can capture and store carbon dioxide of biogenic origin at the lowest cost, determined through reverse auctions.
If Sweden is to be able to meet its climate goals by 2045 and thereafter achieve negative emissions, extensive emission reductions are required. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is an essential climate tool to reach these targets. The Swedish Energy Agency has been tasked with being the National Centre for CCS in Sweden.
Capture. The carbon dioxide is separated from flue gas es in, for example, a combined heat and power plant or a process manufacturing industry.
