Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) is expected to play a key role in reaching climate neutrality targets. However, the evaluation of CCUS technologies is often inconsistent due to fragmented data, diverse modelling assumptions, and varying methodological boundaries. To address this, the TRANSMIT COST Action is developing an open-access database platform designed to support harmonised assessment across Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Techno-Economic Assessment (TEA), and process modelling.
The platform provides a searchable interface for users to access structured and reviewed data relevant to CCUS systems. It highlights typical modelling parameters, system configurations, and boundary conditions commonly used in assessment studies. To ensure consistency, all entries follow a uniform format that allows for cross-case comparisons and benchmarking.
Users may also submit their own calculated datasets for inclusion, subject to peer review. This ensures quality while encouraging knowledge sharing and community engagement. Open access to the platform strengthens transparency, supports broader participation in CCUS research, and enables evidence-based decision-making across academic, policy, and industrial contexts.
