BECCUS (Bioenergy with Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage) is a critical negative emissions technology.

Here’s a quick breakdown: 

1️⃣ How It Works 🌱 Plants absorb CO₂ as they grow. We then convert biomass into energy, capture the resulting CO₂, and store it permanently or utilize it—removing more carbon than we emit.

2️⃣ The Scale of Impact 📊 The IEA projects BECCUS could capture 1.3 billion tonnes of CO₂ annually by 2050. Current pilot projects already achieve over 90% capture efficiency.

3️⃣ Standardizing the Future 📝 The world's first international standard proposal for BECCS has been successfully initiated, paving the way for global deployment and verification.

This is a vital tool for tackling hard-to-abate sectors.
