We present the economic data and CO₂ cost estimates in the technology infosheets from various references, keeping each source’s original assumptions to ensure transparency and traceability. To support harmonization and allow users to apply their own assumptions, we created this simple ‘Cost Calculator’ in Excel. This file enables users to combine data from the tool with custom inputs to recalculate CO₂ costs, making the information adaptable for different scenarios or policy needs. 

The MAP-IT CCU Capture Cost Calculator is designed to estimate the cost of CO₂ capture using a techno-economic approach. It combines technical process data from the technology infosheets with economic parameters such as CAPEX, OPEX, WACC, and utility prices. We have foreseen this Cost Calculator as the cost parameters will be different for each organisation. This Cost Calculator will allow you to make a first quick estimate with the available information.

You can use this template to provide the information about your technology. This template helps ensure consistent data collection and allows us to evaluate and potentially integrate your contribution into the tool.

Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) technologies have emerged as critical components in the global strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and transition towards a low-carbon economy. As industries and governments seek efficient and scalable methods to mitigate CO₂ emissions, the need for accessible, user-friendly, and data-driven tools becomes increasingly important.

This document provides a comprehensive overview of several key digital tools and resources developed to support stakeholders involved in CCUS planning, evaluation, and implementation. Each tool presented serves a unique purpose from techno-economic analysis and feasibility studies to geospatial mapping and technology benchmarking each tailored to specific user needs and technical challenges.
