The Carbon dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) Technical Workshop 2023 will be hosted by the Geological Carbon Dioxide Storage Technology Research Association (GCS) and will take place on 24th January 2023 in Tokyo, Japan with live streaming.

The workshop will focus on the latest domestic and international CCS technology developments and challenges, which are essential for achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.

The GCS has conducted research and development (R&D) towards CO2 geological storage implementation in Japan through the projects commissioned by the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry (METI) and the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).

With the growing need for societal CCS implementation, METI has started to develop the CCS Long-term Roadmap to establish a business environment toward the start of CCS business by 2030. The CCS Long-Term Roadmap Intermediate Summary, issued in May 2022, specifies concrete actions to achieve the target, including cost reduction in the entire CCS value chain, ideal support from the government, and the legislation of domestic laws required for CCS business.

In this workshop, overseas and GCS leading experts will participate and present to highlight the latest CCS projects and policy design updates. GCS efforts to develop and scale up innovative CCS technologies will also be reported, including the field demonstration of optic fiber sensing technology.

We look forward to welcoming you personally or virtually at the workshop.
