There are two main technologies: ‘post-combustion’, which removes carbon after coal is burnt, and pre-combustion’. Last week, the government said it would only accept ‘post-combustion’ plans as the technology could be ‘retro-fitted’ to existing dirty coal plants.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) remains controversial as experts continue to question the length of time carbon can stay buried before escaping back into the atmosphere. The solution has also been criticized as unsustainable due to the limited amount of storage space for carbon available on the planet.
