We may only be halfway through 2021, but it is already shaping up to be a breakthrough year for carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) to emerge as a viable tool for upstream companies to decarbonise operations. Although the concept has been around for decades, CCS is moving into the mainstream. All the industry’s largest companies now plan to use sequestration to help them reach their decarbonisation targets.
Wood Mackenzie Asia Pacific Head of Markets and Transitions Prakash Sharma responds to the recently released IPCC report.
Carbon emissions in the steel sector must fall by 75% from today’s levels to limit global warming to within 2 degree Celsius (°C), says Wood Mackenzie.
According to a new report from Wood Mackenzie, a Verisk business (Nasdaq:VRSK), solar power will have a significant impact on demand for aluminium, copper, and zinc, with the usage of all three metals in the sector set to double by 2040.
Wood Mackenzie is organising the 2021 Southeast Asia Energy Forum today. Experts will be discussing key issues and opportunities facing the region’s energy industry over the coming decades.
Oil Search and Santos have reached agreement on the merger ratio under the proposed merger.
China’s CATL unveiled its newly-developed sodium-ion battery at a launch event today.
Demand across most commodities in China is expected to slow down in the second half of 2021, according to Wood Mackenzie’s new monthly China Economic Focus report.
Community solar is taking an increasing slice of market share in the US. State-level programs and incentives fueled a record-breaking year of growth in 2020, accounting for 37% of annual non-residential solar capacity – up from just 13% in 2016.

Despite the ‘war on plastics’, demand over the coming decades will be robust, underpinned by the growing global middle-class and the material requirements of the energy transition.
Another commodities supercycle is on the horizon, but it will be different from any that have come before. Fossil fuels won’t be in the vanguard and the winners will be the industrial metals needed to electrify society - cobalt, lithium, copper, nickel, and aluminium.
Europe is at the forefront of the shift to net zero, both in ambition, but also in terms of how to make rapid and deep decarbonisation a reality. The world needs to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions as quickly as possible. Not doing so means we will need to turn to expensive and unproven technologies to withdraw CO2 from the atmosphere later this century.
The EU Commission proposed a carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) as part of today’s “Fit for 55” package. James Whiteside, global head of multi-commodity research at Wood Mackenzie, said: “As the first mechanism of its kind, the CBAM is being designed in consultation with industry to avoid unintended consequences. “A CBAM that does not cover a substantial portion of the production chain will encourage carbon leakage - pushing emissions beyond the borders of the EU or shifting competition between EU and non-EU producers to the next stage of the value chain.”
European steelmaker ArcelorMittal today announced plans to become the world’s first steelmaker to produce fossil-free steel using virgin iron. ArcelorMittal, the world’s second largest steelmaker and Europe’s largest producer, plans to produce fossil-free steel via a process known as H-DRI-EAF.
