Overview

This is the final installment of a three-part series of webinars introducing Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) and will focus on the policy needed to deploy more carbon capture projects around the world.

CCS is making energy news headlines almost daily, and for good reason.  As one of the most effective technologies to tackle climate change, CCS is gaining ground across the US and around the world. Curious about the economic, climate, or policy aspects of CCS? Interested in hearing what’s happening in the CCS world? If so, the Carbon Capture 101 Webinars series is for you. Hosted by The Global CCS Institute, the Carbon Capture and Storage 101 Webinars will feature three, one-hour webinars every other Friday at 10 am for the benefit of Capitol Hill staffers and other interested stakeholders.

Join us for our third and final webinar on May 21st, CCS Policy for a Net-Zero Future, featuring the Chief of Staff of the Office of Fossil Energy and three CCS policy experts from leading climate NGOs in D.C. They will discuss the government’s role in incentivising investment in CCS, and how strong policy can help accelerate the deployment of the technology around the globe. In addition, they will give an overview of the current state of CCS policy initiatives being debated in the U.S. Congress and the DOE’s role in implementing CCS policy.
