Carbon capture, usage and storage (CCUS): non-pipeline transport
Consultation description
This consultation seeks views on proposed policy positions in the following areas:
- delivery mechanism for support
- support for non-pipeline transport (NPT) costs
- NPT fee options and cross-chain risk allocation
- regulatory environment for the NPT solution
- standardisation and operational considerations
Please use our online consultation platform to respond.
For consultation questions 3, 10 and 23, we ask respondents to share any relevant information using the Excel NPT data template (available here and via the online response platform (CitizenSpace). You can complete the form and upload via Question 3 on CitizenSpace.
We welcome responses from anyone with an interest in the CCUS policy area. We envisage that this consultation will be of particular interest to:
- those developing and intending to use CO2 non-pipeline transport routes within the UK, for example, dispersed sites in sectors such as greenhouse gas removals, energy from waste, power plants, biomethane
- UK CO2 transport and storage network developers and infrastructure providers
- supply chain companies
- trade bodies
- academics
- prospective investors
Stakeholder event
We are holding an online stakeholder session on this consultation on Thursday 19 February, 10am to 11.30am. It will cover the NPT fees in detail, and provide time for questions and answers.

We will send invites to our NPT distribution list. If you are interested in attending the session and/or signing up to future NPT communications, please email NPTandCrossBorderCO2@energysecurity.gov.uk.
