Currently, the majority of renewable energy policies and implementation is focused on electricity production. However, industry accounts for almost a third of world-wide GHG emissions and uses mostly liquid and gaseous fuels to run. It is also the main stay under much of the wealth that is being generated in developed and developing nations. To fully switch to electrification is technically possible but in practice quite challenging and expensive. It is therefore crucial to provide industry with alternatives to achieve full decarbonization that is cost effective and avoids shutting down of operations or relocation to other more favourable (less restrictive) countries.
This course offers the unique opportunity to get quickly appraised with the industrial CCS trends, technologies, economics, project development and ongoing projects. Received first hand from the industrial expert who was part of some of these major projects. Some key take aways from this course:
The course provides an overall overview and introduction to the topic of CCS with an emphasis on economics, real life project examples, technologies and project development. It is therefore particularly interesting for people who are new to these topics such as young professionals and early career starters or people employed in related sectors like finance, industry etc. It offers people with more experience like mid and executive level the ability to get completely up to date with the latest developments. In addition, it is suitable for all participants that want to become active in the CCS field.
