  • CO2 Capture Project - The CO2 Capture Project is an international effort funded by eight of the world's leading energy companies. This project intends to address the issue of reducing emissions in a manner that will contribute to an environmentally acceptable and competitively priced continuous energy supply for the world.
     
  • CO2STORE - The aim of the CO2STORE is to prepare the ground for widespread underground storage of CO2 in aquifers. CO2STORE is a research project with 19 participants from industry and research institutes, partly funded by the European Union. CO2STORE is a follow-up of the two Saline Aquifer CO2 Storage (SACS) research projects.

  • The IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme (IEA GHG) is an international collaboration which aims to:
    - Evaluate technologies for reducing emissions of greenhouse gases;
    - Disseminate the results of these studies;
    - Identify targets for research, development and demonstration and promote the appropriate work.
