The circular carbon economy (CCE) is an energy transition framework that is based on a holistic, technology-neutral and country context-sensitive approach to achieving net-zero emissions. It embraces all available technologies and tools, from renewable energy to carbon capture and storage (CCS). In November 2021, KAPSARC launched the first edition of the CCE Index, which is a composite indicator that enables cross-country comparisons on two related aspects: how countries are currently performing on the CCE, and how they are positioned to make progress toward CCEs and carbon or greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions neutrality.
