Extended Data Fig. 5: Projections of CCS capacity (incl. BECCS and DACCS) required to meet the most stringent climate targets in different IPCC scenario ensembles, in the years from the release of each ensemble.
From: Feasible deployment of carbon capture and storage and the requirements of climate targets
a, Median and interquartile range of CCS capacity in the three latest IPCC scenario ensembles for reaching below 1.5°C (Gt/yr). AR533 sample includes Category 1 (430-480 ppm) which combines 1.5°C and (some) 2°C outcomes together95; SR1.534,96 includes ’1.5C low overshoot’, ’1.5C high overshoot’, and ’Below 1.5C’ categories; AR610,32 includes Category 1 and 2. b, 1.5°C Illustrative Mitigation Pathways (IMPs) in the IPCC SR1.5 and AR6 scenario ensembles. IMPs were used in SR1.5 (orange) and AR6 (blue). See Supplementary Table 10 for tabular illustration of this data.
