CCS education in developing countries – A Global CCS Institute guidance paper
CCS education in developing countries – A Global CCS Institute guidance paper

11th October 2016

Topic(s): Public engagement

Education has long been recognised as a critical component in understanding how science, society, and adaptation influence thinking about issues impacting our climate. As an emerging technology with an important role to play in shaping our low carbon energy future, carbon capture and storage (CCS) plays a role in our teaching around these topics in both developed and developing countries.

Yet, past research from Dowd and Jeanneret and Corry and Reiner identified that CCS is poorly represented in school science curriculums, and teachers report a lack of confidence in teaching about the technology. To help address these and other issues around public engagement with CCS, the Institute works with educators and communication/engagement staff around the world to showcase and share best practice, and support the adaptation of the Institute’s own CO2degrees Education program.

This short guidance paper is a welcome contribution to the Institute’s education resources. In it, Geochemist and renowned CCS education professional Sallie Greenberg, PhD explores the key lessons from past CCS initiatives and the general education literature, before highlighting areas of commonality and potential areas of challenge when delivering education initiatives in developing countries. The Paper then uses a comprehensive case study on the work of the Stakeholder Engagement Team at the South African Centre for CCS (SACCCS) in order to bring some of these examples and learnings to life.

Developing the public engagement strategy for the Guangdong CCUS Demonstration Program
Developing the public engagement strategy for the Guangdong CCUS Demonstration Program

29th October 2015

Topic(s): Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), Public engagement

The Global CCS Institute and the UK-China (Guangdong) CCUS Centre have authored this report to document the process that has been undertaken by the China Resources Power (Haifeng) and China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) Integrated Carbon Capture and Sequestration Demonstration Project (CRP Power Project) to develop a public engagement strategy for the project.

This undertaking is the first of its kind in China and is an ongoing journey.To date, the majority of CCS public engagement project case studies have analysed activity that has taken place in Europe, North America and Australia. An important next step is to reflect on how current best practice may apply in other regional contexts. The experiences and lessons learned by the CRP Power Project may be useful to other CCS project proponents in China who are considering the development of a public engagement strategy.

This report is authored by Peta Ashworth (Ash Research), Jessica Morton (Global CCS Institute), Yamin Lin and Si Cao (Nafang Media) and Xi Liang (UK-China (Guangdong) CCUS Centre). The authors would like to acknowledge the strategic advice and input from Qianguo Lin (Global CCS Institute) and Dr David Reiner (Judge Business School, Cambridge University).

Jessica Morton, the Institute’s Public Engagement Advisor Asia-Pacific has written an Insight that provides an overview of this report and other recent CCS public engagement activities in the Asia Pacific region.

CCS in the Baltic Sea Region – Bastor 2. Work package 3: social aspects for Baltic Sea storage of carbon dioxide
CCS in the Baltic Sea Region – Bastor 2. Work package 3: social aspects for Baltic Sea storage of carbon dioxide

13th April 2015

Topic(s): Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), Public engagement

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has been highlighted in many countries and regions as a vital measure needed to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions in the fight against climate change. The technical and commercial development has been impeded by projects and project plans facing opposition by different groups. Against this background, this report describes the results of a study, within the BASTOR2 project, analyzing which social factors are likely to influence the plans for a proposed Baltic Sea storage project.

As there are not yet any CO2 storage projects in the Baltic region, the analysis for this report has been carried out on three Swedish case-studies of other energy related projects in the Baltic Sea. The social research literature consistently points to local and regional contexts as having a large influence on the perceptions and acceptance of CCS projects. The report consequently highlights a number of contexts, or conditions, that are identified as important factors in how the case-studies have been perceived and accepted or opposed in the local and national context.

Development of a CCS communications framework for Japan (phase 3)
Development of a CCS communications framework for Japan (phase 3)

1st June 2014

Topic(s): Capacity development, Carbon capture use and storage (CCUS), Communication, Public engagement

The Japanese Knowledge Network (JKN) is a group of over 20 organisations sharing knowledge on topics critical to accelerating carbon capture and storage (CCS) in Japan.  A key task of the has been to create a framework for communicating CCS to the general public.

This report presents the findings of the third phase of the 'Development of a CCS Communications Framework for Japan’ project. It is a detailed analysis of the tools and methodologies developed by the network to communicate CCS in an accurate and accessible way. The framework was tested with a group of Japanese citizens who critiqued the information and its delivery for relevance and effectiveness.

This report is authored by Japan NUS Co. Ltd. (JANUS), partnered by Quintessa Japan, and supported by Global CCS Institute.
