CCS in the IPCC Sixth Assessment (AR6) Synthesis Report

Download the brief.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), now on its sixth assessment cycle, published its “Climate Change 2023: Synthesis Report” on 20 March 2023. The Synthesis Report is based on the content of the three Working Groups Assessment Reports and the three Special Reports which have been previously released.

As the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP 28) hosted by the United Arab Emirates in November is approaching, this latest IPCC report aims to inform discussions and negotiations at the upcoming COP, including the first Global Stocktake. Building on the Special Report of 1.5 °C and the WGIII Report on Mitigation, the Synthesis Report once again highlights the importance of carbon capture and storage (CCS) in addressing climate change.
