The government will implement a CCUS policy, designating the power ministry as the nodal agency. CCUS captures CO2 from sources like power plants for industries, aiding India’s 2070 net-zero goal. The PM-STIAC meeting, chaired by Ajay Kumar Sood, discussed the carbon market. Sood emphasized nationwide adoption through a mission-mode approach; participants discussed life-cycle assessment and standards for decarbonisation.
