I gave you facts and number.

The facts are it takes 1.5x powerplants to scrub the carbon from 1x powerplants, using CCS.

So, it's just better to NOT use dirty electricity, and convert it to a renewable, like solar, wind, or hydro.

Also, my company has as objective to becomes neutral by 2030 and 20% carbon negative by 2050.

So, your company will be paying the full cost of the carbon produced by your company? Doubtful. Nobody pays full environment price at the pumps. Or, their electric bills. Or their nat gas bill.

Fossil fuels are subsidized.
