Japan CCUS Summit 2025

Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) technologies are pivotal in global decarbonization efforts, especially for heavy industry sectors. With Japan's ambitious targets of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 46% by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050, CCUS is central to the nation's decarbonization strategy while ensuring energy security and economic growth. The Japanese Government aims to create a favorable business environment by 2030, focusing on cost reduction, public awareness, international promotion, and legislative frameworks. Estimates suggest enabling CO2 storage of 120 to 240 million tons by 2050, with full-scale CCS business deployment anticipated post-2030. The Japan CCUS Summit is Japan’s leading event for carbon capture, utilization & storage, dedicated to advancing Japan’s CCUS efforts with global partnerships. Bringing together over 350 stakeholders, including domestic and international policymakers, industry leaders, and technological innovators, this groundbreaking summit explores critical themes such as regulatory landscapes, pioneering business models, cross-border value chains, technological advancements, international collaboration, and portfolio optimization.
