CSIRO backstories

Iron-rich rocks in Western Australia could potentially generate orange hydrogen while permanently storing carbon dioxide, creating a unique opportunity to support Australia's journey to net zero.

CSIRO has published a series of reports exploring the technical and economic feasibility of a low emissions carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS) hub concept near Darwin, to support carbon management and economic growth goals in the Northern Territory.

Carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) is an important part of the mix to help Australia and the world meet our net zero emission targets.

Australia could turn carbon dioxide waste into a valuable revenue stream, according to a new report on carbon capture and utilisation.

Using carbon dioxide for commercial applications that support emissions reductions and industry growth will be the focus of CSIRO’s upcoming Commoditisation of CO2 Roadmap.

Just outside of Harvey in WA’s south-west, CSIRO has successfully completed its landmark Harvey 5 well drilling operation, marking a milestone for the future of carbon management.

How carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) could help cement and lime industries reach net zero by 2050.

Carbon capture utilisation and storage (CCUS) hubs could help realise Western Australia’s goal of a low carbon future as it transitions from fossil fuels.
