CR20077 - Evaluation of Three Carbon Capture, Use and Storage (CCUS) Innovation Projects

**THIS IS NOT A CALL FOR COMPETITION**

This was awarded under Crown Commercial Services Research Marketplace Dynamic Purchasing System RM6018.

The Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy's (BEIS) is responsible for business, industrial strategy, science, research and innovation, energy and clean growth, and climate change.

Initiated in 2015, BEIS' Energy Innovation Programme (EIP) seeks to reduce the UK's carbon emissions and the cost of decarbonisation, by accelerating the commercialisation of innovative clean energy technologies and processes into the 2020's and 2030s. The Programme, with a budget of £505m and completing in March 2021, consists of six themes, one of which focuses on investment (of around £100m) in industrial decarbonisation and carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS).

This theme incorporates the three programmes under consideration here:

• The Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage Innovation (CCUS-I) programme - a national grant programme supporting innovation projects that can reduce the costs of CCUS and / or enable quicker, more widespread deployment of CCUS in the UK.

• The Carbon Capture and Utilisation Demonstration (CCUD) programme - a national grant programme supporting the design and construction of intermediate scale CCU demonstration projects on industrial sites that capture CO2 for industrial applications.

• The Accelerating CCS Technologies (ACT) programme - a transnational initiative (initially supported as an Horizon 2020 ERA NET) that seeks to facilitate collaborative research, development, and demonstration projects that can accelerate CCUS deployment.

For this purpose, we seek to commission an evaluation that combines an impact evaluation (to assess programme achievements and value for money) with a process evaluation (to learn lessons about optimal programme design and delivery), and a case study approach, reporting at interim (June 2021) and final (June 2022) stages.
