Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage, or BECCS, involves capturing, transporting and permanently storing CO2 from processes where biomass is converted into fuels or directly burned to generate energy.

By capturing the biogenic carbon in biomass, BECCS reduces the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. Alternatively, the sequestered biogenic CO2 can be used as base component for the chemical industry and other material uses (Bioenergy with carbon capture and use – BECCU).
