Government to devise policy framework for carbon capture, utilisation and storage

India's new CCUS policy, steered by the power ministry, emphasizes capturing CO2 for fertilisers and synthetic fuels. Ajay Kumar Sood, principal scientific adviser at PM-STIAC, called for CCUS adoption in key industries. The initiative includes a national portal, emission goals, a net-zero target by 2070, life-cycle assessments, standards, carbon market, and credits, all discussed by various ministries.
