Webinar details
The world is currently grappling with urgent climate challenges, and the global energy landscape is rapidly evolving. To achieve the United Nations’ goal of providing reliable and sustainable energy for all, it is crucial to focus on energy conversion and the reduction of CO2 emissions. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology plays a pivotal role in curbing carbon emissions from the energy sector during the transition to renewable energy sources. Moreover, in the long term, CCS can help decarbonize industries such as refining, iron and steel, cement, and chemicals.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), “CCS stands out as the most significant technology option for directly reducing emissions from industrial processes. It has the potential to mitigate 2 to 2.5 Gigatonnes of CO2 annually worldwide by 2050. Achieving this ambitious target necessitates a combination of advanced expertise in subsurface engineering and innovative approaches.”
Let’s continue our efforts toward a sustainable and cleaner energy future!
