Matching emissions sources to sinks as part of country level screening.
Several governments have recognised the need for CCS to meet the Paris Agreement but are yet to develop licensing and permit procedures and processes.
Need:
A client wanted to undertake a country level screening to identify CO2 emitters and storage to take to the government for approval.
Project:
ERCE was engaged to educate the client on global CCS developments, identify CO2 emitters and undertake a CO2 storage screening exercise at country level.
Outcome:
A storage site and emitters were identified. The client is in discussions with the government for approval to proceed with detailed technical studies.
