The global carbon capture and sequestration market size is expected to be worth USD 3.89 Billion by 2025. It can scale its valuation to USD 13.70 Billion by 2032. The market is anticipated to exhibit a CAGR of 19.7% during the forecast period (2025-2032).
The market growth is driven by investments in industrial decarbonization projects, climate regulations, and scaling of direct air capture (DAC) technologies. Government support for the deployment of carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) projects in North America and Europe can facilitate the market growth.
However, the high capital expenditure required in the execution of CCS projects can limit the market growth.
Key Market Insights
The carbon capture and sequestration market growth is driven by industrial and power generation deployments, as well as collaborations between countries for CCS projects.
- By technology, the pre-combustion capture segment is expected to score a 29.0% share in 2025. This can be attributed to the integration of the technology into gasification and hydrogen processes. The use of this technology to reduce flue gas complexities can make them lucrative for high-purity CO2 streams in cement and hydrogen production processes.
- By application, the industrial processes segment is anticipated to attain a 21.0% market share in 2025. The use of CCS to decarbonize facilities and reduce the carbon footprint can drive the segment growth.
- By end-use industry, the power generation segment can account for a large market share in 2025. This can be attributed to the integration of CCS technology in new power facilities to meet the energy demand. Supportive government policies can incentivize power generation providers to integrate CCS in large-scale projects.
- By region, Europe is anticipated to display the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. This can be on account of policies outlined by the EU Emissions Trading System to lower carbon emissions. Furthermore, initiatives like the Carbon Connect Delta Program to capture, transport, and store CO2 by 2030 can augur favorably for the market.

Market Dynamics
The global carbon capture and sequestration market is characterized by investments from oil and gas producers in the technology. Many of them are driven by fiscal incentives proposed by governments and the use of the technology for oil extraction. On July 17, 2025, the U.S. government signed a new bill to boost the production of carbon capture and aid crude oil producers.
The new-found use of blue hydrogen as a low-carbon alternative in energy storage and electricity generation can induce the market growth. Hydrogen hubs can actively integrate CCS into their plants for reducing carbon emissions and produce blue hydrogen. On November 21, 2024, the U.S. Department of Energy announced USD 2 billion in investment for the deployment of clean hydrogen and expand its renewable energy systems.
Market Opportunity: Integration of CCS into Enhanced Oil Recovery
The use of CCS to enhance the crude oil extraction process and increase barrel production can augur favorably for the carbon capture and sequestration market. Public-private partnerships are playing a major role for governments’ efforts to lower their dependence on oil imports. The Canada Growth Fund, backed by the Canadian government, entered into an agreement with Strathcona Resources to invest USD 730 million on July 10, 2024. This can fund the development of a CCS plant for the capture and storage of carbon dioxide on the Saskatchewan and Alberta oil sands facilities.
Market Challenge: High Capital Investment to Pose a Challenge to Market Growth
The significant financial burden for the installation and maintenance of CCS technologies hinders their global adoption. The customization of the CCS plant and design complexity can raise the deployment costs. However, financial incentives by governments or laws passed for mandatory installments can drive up the market growth over the forecast period.
Analyst’s View
- The demand for lactase enzyme supplements and personalized nutrition approaches by doctors for the management of malabsorption syndrome can drive the market growth.
- Europe is expected to display a strong growth rate in the market, owing to the deployment of CCS projects and laws for the storage and sequestration of CO2.
- Key players are leaning towards public-private partnerships for achieving zero carbon goals.
Recent Developments
ION Clean Energy raised USD 45 million from Chevron USA Inc. on April 04, 2024. The capital will be used in the deployment of the former’s ICE-31 liquid amine carbon capture technology.
