India's rocks could store 400-500 gigatonnes of CO2

A review by researchers from IIT (ISM) Dhanbad and CSIR-CIMFR estimates that India's geological formations could store 400-500 gigatonnes of CO2. Deep saline aquifers are identified as the largest potential storage option. However, the estimates are preliminary, with site-specific studies, modelling and pilot-scale validation needed before deployment.
