Summary: | The continuous temperature rise has raised global concerns about CO<sub>2</sub> emissions. As the country with the largest CO<sub>2</sub> emissions, China is facing the challenge of achieving large CO<sub>2</sub> emission reductions (or even net-zero CO<sub>2</sub> emissions) in a short period. With the strong support and encouragement of the Chinese government, technological breakthroughs and practical applications of carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) are being aggressively pursued, and some outstanding accomplishments have been realized. Based on the numerous information from a wide variety of sources including publications and news reports only available in Chinese, this paper highlights the latest CCUS progress in China after 2019 by providing an overview of known technologies and typical projects, aiming to provide theoretical and practical guidance for achieving net-zero CO<sub>2</sub> emissions in the future.
