World Energy Congress Side-Event | Driving the Energy Transition through CCS Technology and Climate Leadership
23rd April 2024
Rotterdam, The Netherlands | Rotterdam Ahoy - Dock 14 | 23 April - 16:30 PM - 18:00 PM |
Climate technologies supporting the mission to net-zero, such as carbon capture and storage, require consistent and dedicated leadership at the helm to ensure that it’s adopted globally. Over the years, we’ve seen unwavering commitment to substantiate the need for CCS illustrated by science-backed thought leadership by some of the world’s most credible organisations, like the IEA, and have seen plans for the technology embedded in the climate strategies of governments and global companies.
Held at the World Energy Congress in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, this event led by the Global CCS Institute will highlight the role CCS will play in the low-carbon transition to ensure that the most catastrophic impacts of climate change are avoided. Highlighted will be CCS projects and initiatives, along with policy positions that have been undertaken that are spearheading the CCS effort, featuring insights from key players leading the path forward.
