Key Focus Areas

The Institute’s focus areas demonstrate how it will operate, and work towards becoming a centre of excellence.

The three focus areas are:

Assisting Projects

• Bridging knowledge gaps between demonstration efforts.
• Developing project specific solutions, particularly amongst early movers.

Fact-Based Advocacy

• Using facts to inform and influence domestic and international low-carbon policies.
• Supporting the commercialisation of CCS by advancing the understanding of appropriate funding and financing solutions, and risk regimes.
• Increasing the awareness of the benefits of CCS and the role it plays within a portfolio of low-carbon technologies.

Sharing Knowledge

• Collecting information to create a central repository for CCS knowledge.
• Creating and sharing information to fill knowledge gaps and build capacity.
