CO2GeoNet Perspective on CO2 Capture and Storage: A Vital Technology for Completing the Climate Change Mitigation Portfolio: 13th International Conference on Greenhouse Gas Control Technologies, GHGT 2016. 14 November 2016 through 18 November 2016

As a UNFCCC accredited Research NGO, CO2GeoNet has been deeply involved in bringing the science behind CO2 storage and the rationale for Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) to a wide range of stakeholders (including the general public) before, during and after the COP21 Climate Conference in Paris. Key messages on CO2 storage, informed by dialogue with numerous stakeholders, are presented here. The overarching conclusion is that collaboration is needed at an EU and a global level to deploy CCS, a viable and flexible technology ready to play an essential role in completing the climate change mitigation portfolio
