Under the emission reduction plan, carbon capture and storage technology has embraced the development opportunity

According to Bloomberg New Energy Finance, Gina McCarthy, the US Environmental Protection Agency's recent spokesman, said that the emission reduction plan being promoted by the United States provides huge development opportunities
for promoting low-carbon technologies such as carbon capture and storage.

"Under the federal government's emissions reduction plan, every energy source, including coal and oil and gas, will continue to work
.
" Gina McCarthy said
at a town hall meeting this Wednesday.
The Clean Power Plan, released this month, calls for a 32 percent
reduction in carbon emissions by 2030 compared to 2005 levels.

"This presents a huge opportunity
to accelerate the advancement of clean combustion and carbon capture and storage technologies.
" Gina McCarthy said
.

Her remarks come as the U.
S.
Department of Energy and China's National Energy Administration share their research in capturing greenhouse gases from coal combustion
.

"Driven by carbon capture and storage technology, high levels of carbon capture will become possible
over time.
" Gina McCarthy said
.
A few days ago, she was meeting with the Minister of Environment and other Japanese officials
in Tokyo, Japan.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of the
key technologies to combat global climate change.
At its core, it is a technology that sequesters carbon dioxide emissions from the atmosphere for a
long time by capturing and sequestering it deep underground.
Currently, there are several ways
to control CO2 emissions.
CCS is expected to contribute about 14% of CO2 reductions by 2050
