Revenue Support Agreement
The Revenue Support Agreement (RSA) is the mechanism designed to incentivise private sector investment and mitigate demand related revenue risks to Transport and Storage companies (T&SCo). The T&SCo form part of the projects involved in the Carbon Capture Usage and Storage (CCUS) sector, providing the industry with their services in transport and storage of carbon dioxide.
LCCC have been advising government on the design and development of the Revenue Support Agreement since the early conceptual design stages in 2020, and will continue to contribute our support towards the expansion of the CCUS market.
