Priority market scope

Industries

German onshore CCUS pathways must be designed around the source, not around generic templates.

CarbonCore applies a common integration system while preserving the process, operating, infrastructure and regulatory realities of each sector.

Portfolio logic

Different sources. One onshore integration problem.

Concentration, impurities, continuity, plant lifetime, geography, permitting sensitivity and infrastructure access change the feasible configuration. Each pathway still requires storage, transport, technical and commercial assumptions to converge on a credible German onshore route.

Illustrative industrial source and storage network
01 · Cement

High process emissions, long asset horizons.

Storage route confidence, heat integration, compression strategy and infrastructure timing materially shape investment sequencing for cement sites.

02 · Lime

Concentrated emissions, regional plants.

Smaller source scale can make aggregation, modularity, transport logic and contract architecture decisive.

03 · Waste-to-energy

Strategic carbon removal potential.

Variable feedstock, biogenic share, steam use, urban location and cluster integration require explicit boundaries and MRV logic.

Discuss a WtE pathway ↗
04 · Chemicals

Multiple streams and brownfield interfaces.

Source quality, operating continuity, solvent compatibility and existing utility systems can dominate configuration choices.

Discuss a chemicals pathway ↗
05 · Metals

Transition technologies and high-temperature processes.

CCS must be tested against alternative process routes, product markets, energy balances and site investment cycles.

06 · Industrial clusters

Shared infrastructure, unequal readiness.

Cluster value depends on transparent allocation, specification management, timing, liability logic and commitment sequencing.

07 · Storage development

Subsurface potential must become a customer proposition.

Qualification, acceptance criteria, commercial packaging and development milestones need to align with emitter decisions.

Qualification lens

Source reality

Volume, concentration, impurities, operating profile, asset life, capture boundary and site-specific operating constraints.

Pathway reality

Transport mode, CO₂ specification, network timing, storage acceptance envelope, regulatory path and contingency.

Decision reality

Capital gates, permit dependencies, commercial commitments, evidence maturity, risk ownership and stop conditions.

Next decision

Start with the decision that controls the onshore pathway.

Use a focused discussion to test source-to-storage fit, identify the interfaces that control progress and define the evidence required for the next investment decision.
