Workshop 4-6

#4 Integrating technologies and processes for cost effective CO₂ specifications over the CCS value chain

Moderator: Stijn Santen, EBN

14:00-14:05 Welcome, objectives and setting the stage, Moderator

14:05-14:25 Michalis Agraniotis (Mitsubishi Heavy Industries), MHI’s carbon capture technology. Real world experience and lessons learnt

14:25-14:45 Manuel Herraiz, Siemens Energy

14:45-15:05 Marcel de Vries (Gasunie), Route towards safe and cost-efficient CO2 specifications over the CCS value chain

15:05-15:25 Chris Phillips (Wood Group), CO₂ Conditioning Technologies – Strategies and Cost Considerations

15:25-15:30 Closing remarks, Moderator

This workshop discusses the various aspects of CO₂ specifications from the viewpoint of the transport and storage provider (desiring strict specs) as well as industry emitters (desiring relaxed specs) and the role of the technology provider.  The composition of CO₂ strongly depends on the emitter industry, the capture technology and post conditioning of the CO₂ stream. This needs to be integrated into standards that are acceptable to the companies in the value chain. Both the various technologies, the experience in CCS projects as well as the process to achieve standards for the CO₂ specification and their cost implications for large scale CCS deployment will be presented and discussed in this workshop.

#5 CCUS/CDR MRV in Action: Challenges, Opportunities, and Implementation Strategies

Moderator: Jasmin Kemper, IEAGHG

14:00-14:05 Welcome, Moderator

14:05-14:20 Thor Solnes (Northern Lights), Experience from Northern Lights/Longship

14:20-14:35 Gerard Ostheimer (CEM Biofuture Platform / Molecule Group), Biogenic CO₂ for Fuels and Chemicals

14:35-14:50 Claude Lorea (CL4Change), Designing Robust MRV for Book & Claim and Chain-of-Custody Frameworks

14:50-15:00 Dr. Abbie Mabey, 44.01

15:00-15:30 Discission and Wrap up, Moderator

In this workshop, you will get to hear from experienced experts and practitioners about the most pressing issues for MRV and practical experiences in implementation from multiple perspectives. The session will cover insights and discussions on the opportunities as well as the challenges of different MRV frameworks, and the important overarching question of how to connect and integrate the different approaches. Topics to be addressed include measurement approaches for mixed CO₂ streams containing biogenic fractions (such as in waste-to-energy plants or industrial plants using biogenic feedstocks), non-pipeline CO₂ transport systems, and interests in accounting for ‘green’ products produced from CCUS equipped installations or value chains (e.g. cement).

#6 Pushing projects forward: How government policy can help develop sound business models for carbon management

Moderator: Eadbhard Pernot, ZEP

14:00-14:05 Welcome, objectives and setting the stage, Moderator

14:05 – 14:25 Martijn van de Sande, Dutch Government

14:25 – 14:45 Alexander Engh, Norwegian Government

14:45 – 15:05 Matthew Taylor, UK Government

15:05 – 15:25 Jason Gadoury, Canada Government

15:25-15:30 Closing remarks, Moderator

Effective, revenue-creating business models are a prerequisite for debt financing to flow to carbon management projects, for both CCS, CCU and CDR. In today’s state of development, government policy is a key element that influences the creation of such business models. 

This workshop will focus on learnings from key stakeholders in the UK, EU and EEA, and globally. Representatives from government, industry and the finance sector will discuss key characteristics of policy and business model that are required, and outlines key development needs for the next years.

The workshop begins with an overview from policymakers, continues with perspectives from both project developers and the finance sector, and then moves to an interactive discussion on key next steps required.
