This review provides an insight for Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology
implementation possibilities in the niche of coal power generation plants. A brief explanation of
the technology is necessary for understandin
g the technological and economic constraints
affecting successful implementation. Barriers and opportunities for the technology are
addressed, and the advantages for achieving climate change mitigation goals are discussed.
Possible solutions to protect the technology and its implementation support are provided as
well. This study maintains that international collaboration, government incentives, a positive
investment climate, public awareness, and learning by doing experiments are needed to ensure
that CCS technology operates successfully within coal power plants. Based on the conducted
review, we conclude that renewable energy
technologies must be developed rapidly and
implemented as soon as possible; and until that time, CCS technology can provide a temporary
solution by contributing to climate change mitigation plans.
