Private. Expert. Conflict-free. Committed to India.
National CCUS Mission is India's only fully independent, privately-held Centre of Excellence dedicated exclusively to Carbon Capture, Utilisation & Storage. Founded by a team with deep operational roots in Australia — the world's most advanced CCUS jurisdiction — and strengthened by partnerships across Norway, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, and Denmark, we bring the world's best proven practice directly to India's industrial transformation challenge.
We are not a government body, not a vendor, and not a research institution. We are a commercial advisory practice whose only mandate is to help Indian industry, investors, and policymakers make the right decisions about CCUS — faster, with greater confidence, and at lower cost than any alternative.
Our independence is our defining asset. We have no equity relationships with technology vendors, no government shareholding, and no conflicts of interest. Every recommendation we make is grounded solely in what is technically sound, financially viable, and strategically optimal for our clients.
Private & independent — zero government or vendor equity
Pioneer nations — Australia, Norway, UK, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark
CCUS investment opportunity we are working to unlock for India
India's Net Zero target — every year of delay increases the cost
India is the world's third-largest CO₂ emitter, producing 2.6 billion tonnes annually from an industrial base that cannot be decarbonised by renewables alone. Steel, cement, chemicals, fertilisers, and coal power account for more than 60% of India's emissions — and the physics of these processes means that a significant fraction of those emissions are unavoidable without carbon capture. India's Net Zero 2070 pledge, made at COP26, is simply not achievable without large-scale CCUS deployment.
The urgency has been sharpened by the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which imposes carbon costs on Indian steel, cement, chemicals, and aluminium exports to Europe from 2026. Indian exporters that cannot demonstrate credible decarbonisation pathways will face compounding cost disadvantages in their most valuable export markets. CCUS is the only technology that can decarbonise these processes at the pace and scale that CBAM compliance requires.
NITI Aayog's landmark 2022 CCUS report identified a capture potential of 750 million tonnes per annum by 2050, a domestic storage capacity of 395–614 gigatonnes, and an investment requirement of US$100–150 billion. The Government of India has proposed a dedicated Carbon Capture Finance Corporation (CCFC) with Rs. 4,100 per tonne sequestration subsidies. The policy architecture is taking shape — what India needs now is the implementation expertise to act on it.
Our founding team and advisory network spans the six nations that collectively pioneered the global CCUS industry. We translate decades of hard-won operational knowledge — from the North Sea to the Gorgon gas field — into India-specific solutions.
One of the most critical barriers to CCUS deployment in India is not technology or geology — it is the cost of capital and the complexity of structuring bankable projects. Our finance team has deep relationships with every major multilateral and bilateral development finance institution, and an established track record of structuring blended finance solutions that make projects viable at Indian cost levels.
We work with World Bank / IFC, Asian Development Bank, Green Climate Fund, Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, and European Investment Bank to access concessional capital, viability gap funding, and technical assistance grants. We also maintain active relationships with institutional investors, sovereign wealth funds, and private equity houses that are seeking credible CCUS investment opportunities in emerging markets.
Our finance structuring capability spans project finance, green bonds, carbon credit monetisation, CBAM compliance instruments, and equity co-investment — giving Indian project developers the full capital stack required to reach financial investment decision.
