The CCUS Hub search tool

Our interactive map tool, developed by BCG and OGCI, identifies locations for potential new CCUS hubs around the world.

In collaboration:

What does the tool do?

The CCUS Hub Search tool highlights 272 potential new CCUS hubs in 59 countries around the world.

 

It matches clusters of CO2 sources from a range of emitting industries with possible storage locations. It then defines possible hub locations based on estimates of cost per tonne across the value chain, including capture, transportation and storage.

 

Low-cost CCUS clusters are possible through careful selection of emitters and network design, with estimated abatement costs possible below $100 per tonne in all regions for advantaged projects.

How to use the CCUS Hub Search tool
  1. The map shows potential CCUS hubs that have been identified, optimized to balance impact and cost (preferred scale). The larger the dot, the greater the emissions volumes available to be captured and stored. Click on a dot to get information on that hub.
  2. Zoom in on the map for more detail on regions or hubs. The map shows potential CO2 stores in depleted oil and gas reservoirs (green hexagons) and saline aquifers (blue). Zoom further to view geographic extent of potential hubs drawn as polygons.
  3. Filters on the left narrow down your search. The data can be filtered by country, sector, cost tier, base vs preferred scale (all relevant emitters versus the lowest cost combination to deliver over 2 Mt CO2/yr) and CO2 transportation mode *new for 2025.* The filters can be used together or separately. Use reset to remove a filter.
  4. The charts detail potential volumes and abatement costs for each hub. The charts and legend update to display information for the set of hubs on the screen.

Hub cost tiers: Tier 1: less than $50/t   Tier 2: $50-100/t   Tier 3: $100-150/t   Tier 4: more than $150

BCG and OGCI are working together to identify new hubs. The CCUS Hub Search currently highlights 279 potential CCUS hubs in 56 countries. It does this by matching clusters of CO2 sources from a range of emitting industries with possible storage locations. It then defines possible hub areas based on estimates of cost per tonne, including capture, transportation and stroage.
