CCUS (Carbon Capture Utilization & Storage Course)

Carbon Capture Fundamentals: CCS, CCUS & Net Zero

Understand carbon capture technologies, CO₂ transport, geological storage and the pathways to Net Zero.

This course provides a practical and accessible introduction to climate change, carbon management, and Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage (CCUS). Designed for both technical and non-technical audiences, it explains the key concepts, terminology, technologies, and industry developments shaping the global energy transition.

Learners will explore climate change fundamentals, greenhouse gases, the carbon cycle, global emissions trends, Net Zero pathways, and the role of carbon management solutions. The course covers the complete CCUS value chain, including carbon capture technologies, CO₂ transportation, utilisation opportunities, geological storage, and the development of CCUS hubs and clusters.

You will also gain an understanding of long-term CO₂ containment, including reservoir and caprock characteristics, CO₂ behaviour in the subsurface, trapping mechanisms, monitoring techniques, and the engineering principles that ensure safe and permanent geological storage.

Real-world examples, industry case studies, and practical insights are used throughout the course to connect theory with current developments across the energy, industrial, and low-carbon sectors.

Whether you are an energy professional, sustainability practitioner, student, researcher, policymaker, business leader, or simply interested in understanding climate solutions, this course will provide a solid foundation for navigating the evolving landscape of carbon management, CCUS, and the energy transition.

No prior technical knowledge is required.
