16. Carbon Capture and Storage
M0213
The proposed module applies to select projects applying the Methodology Framework for Carbon Capture and Storage. It applies to project activities that store CO2 by injecting water-dissolved CO2 into reactive, igneous rock. The proposed module quantifies the net amount of CO2 chemically bound through mineralization and that remains as a dissolved phase in the reservoir fluid with the ongoing mineralization process.
SUMMARY OF DEVELOPMENT
- The module was proposed by South Pole Carbon Asset Management Ltd. and Perspectives Climate Group as part of the CCS+ Initiative under an older version of the the VCS Methodology Development and Review Process (MDRP) (PDF).
- In December 2024, the development of this methodology was put on hold.
- In March 2026, Verra reassessed the priority of methodologies under development and decided to keep this proposal on hold.
- Verra will reassess whether to resume the development of this methodology in Q3 2027.
