Partnerships

Collaboration underpins everything we do at the Global CCS Institute. We work with governments, industry, research institutions, NGOs, and community groups to accelerate the deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) solutions worldwide. 

Our partnerships are mission-driven and purpose-built to deliver impact. By sharing expertise, insights, and resources, we help our partners navigate technical, policy, and regulatory challenges, foster innovation, and create opportunities for scaling CCS effectively. 

 

 

About the Foundation

The Global Carbon Management Foundation is the world’s only philanthropic foundation dedicated to carbon management. Established in 2022, we support breakthrough CCS programs that accelerate global progress toward net-zero emissions.

How the Foundation Works

We partner with leading carbon management experts and organisations to fund high-impact, evidence-based solutions. Closely affiliated with the Global CCS Institute, we leverage global networks, research, and advocacy to deliver results.

What the Foundation Funds – Carbon Management Grants with Global Impact

We provide grants to carbon management initiatives that:

• Focus on critical enablers for carbon management deployment, including policy, finance, data, and early project design in high-emitting sectors and regions.
• Prioritise regions key to carbon management that need foundational capacity, including China, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and India.
• Embed climate and environmental justice for affected communities.
• Have high-impact in hard-to-abate sectors.

About the Academy

Closely aligned with the work of the Global CCS Institute, the Academy is part of a shared mission to accelerate climate solutions through education, collaboration, and capacity building. 

Carbon management cannot scale without global cooperation. That’s why the Academy connects leading research institutions, educators, professionals, and students across countries and disciplines. By bringing together world-class resources and people, the platform lowers barriers to collaboration and builds the technical and regulatory capacity needed to achieve net-zero emissions.

What the Academy offers

• A virtual hub for sharing educational resources, course offerings, and researcher profiles
• Global visibility of workforce development opportunities
• A community of practice focused on advancing carbon management and climate mitigation

Get involved

Institutions can join as partners (helping to shape and grow the Academy) or as affiliates (staying connected and contributing resources).

About the CMC

To keep global warming below 1.5°C, the world must rapidly scale up carbon management. The Carbon Management Challenge (CMC) is an international initiative driving the deployment of carbon capture, removal, use, and storage technologies to address CO₂ emissions at scale.

Launched in 2023 by 11 founding governments at the Major Economies Forum, the Challenge now includes 23 participating countries and regions, with more joining. Together, they are working to build a pipeline of carbon management projects that, by 2030, can collectively manage 1 gigatonne of CO₂ per year.

The Global CCS Institute serves as the secretariat to the CMC, helping facilitate its operations and supporting global coordination.

What the CMC does

• Sets national and collective goals for carbon management deployment
• Promotes climate finance and public-private partnerships
• Tracks project progress and fosters shared learning
• Prioritises meaningful public engagement and environmental co-benefits

The CMC is organised around three workstreams focused on developing country finance, project tracking, and strategic communications, led by participant governments from every major region.
