UK Achieves Milestone in Carbon Capture Supply Chain and Antarctic Sustainability
The UK has reached a significant milestone in its carbon capture, usage, and storage (CCUS) efforts, awarding £1.5 billion in supply-chain contracts to local businesses. This initiative is part of the East Coast Cluster, a partnership involving major energy companies like bp, Equinor, and TotalEnergies. The project aims to reduce industrial CO2 emissions and support low-carbon hydrogen production. Additionally, the British Antarctic Survey's Discovery Building has received an Outstanding BREEAM accreditation, marking a first for sustainable construction in Antarctica.
