Objectives
<< Thank you very much for your attendance. The workshop was a great success. >>Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) has drawn international attention as one of the promising technologies to tackle the global warming while ensuring sustainable economic growth. Industrialized countries, in particular, are making great efforts toward its wide deployment in the 2020s. In Japan, CCS projects are shifting from a research phase to demonstration. It is, therefore, essential for us to assess their safety, regulations and environmental impacts and to gain more public acceptance of CCS toward demonstration and commercialization.
In the workshop, we invited experts not only in Japan but also from overseas to make a presentation under the theme of “Ensuring safety toward public acceptance”. This was aimed at deepening our understanding on the roles of CCS in global environment issues and energy policies and the challenges to be addressed for the promotion of CCS.
