Discussion: Areas of cooperation in Point Source Capture. Facilitators: Åse Slagtern and Ron Munson
The discussion included:
· The need to accelerate implementation of CCS.
Increase focus on capture from industrial CO2 sources and dispatchable power in combination with renewables.
Facilitate cooperation and share knowledge, e.g. through publishing, without revealing IPR, share success stories and consider datasharing on capture.
Explore opportunities to align operating procedures and analytical methods across testing centers to facilitate apples-to-apples comparisons.
Look for knowledge and experience where it is. For example, there may be much to learn from UK and why projects have not reached FID.
Identify what communication is needed towards the general public and other stakeholders and elucidate the necessity of CCS.
Incorporate feedback from communities and other stakeholders in guiding future activities to promote commercial liftoff.
Showcase the successes while avoiding the fossil connection.
Be patient. The road from lab-scale to full scale commercial is long and expensive. Go stepwise
