Significant agreement is the Paris Agreement, adopted in 2016 by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). It recognizes the importance of CCS as a potential climate change mitigation solution. Pakistan is also one of the signatory country that have signed Paris Agreement. Prioritizing of the coal-fired power generation policy in Pakistan, inert gasses production from oil and gas fields and emissions form various industries are the major concerns for the atmosphere. Number of different geological sites are assessed for storage of CO2 into a subsurface as fundamental national key policy of Pakistan to participate net-zero carbon mission of the world. Stored CO2 on later stages can also be utilized in various industries to achieve financial outcomes.
