Japan to ship industrial carbon to Malaysia by 2030 for offshore storage, aiming for 20 million tons annually.
Malaysia and Japan are advancing a cross-border carbon capture and storage project, with Japan planning to ship industrial emissions—mainly from power, steel, and refining—to offshore storage sites off Sarawak, Borneo, by 2030.
The initiative aims to store up to 20 million tons annually, with Malaysia positioning itself as Southeast Asia’s CCS hub.
While Malaysia projects up to $250 billion in economic gains and has passed enabling legislation, critics question the technology’s effectiveness, calling it expensive, unproven at scale, and a distraction from renewable energy.
Environmentalists warn it risks shifting climate responsibility to Malaysia, labeling it “carbon colonialism,” while the IEA projects CCS will contribute less than 5% of global emissions reductions by 2050.
