This paper presents the findings of a survey conducted by KAPSARC, focusing on the role of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology within the framework of Circular Carbon Economy (CCE). The survey, part of the CCE Roadmaps project, aimed to gather insights from diverse stakeholders to inform the development of technology roadmaps. The study focuses on the perceived importance, barriers, and potential of CCS technologies in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, with a specific focus on their implementation in Saudi Arabia. By analyzing the perspectives of various experts and industry professionals, this research provides valuable insights into CCS’s current state and prospects within the CCE framework. The findings of this study contribute to the growing body of knowledge on sustainable energy solutions and offer important considerations for policymakers and industry leaders in shaping the future of carbon management strategies.
