(English to follow) 国際エネルギー交渉実務家協会(AIEN)のCCUSタスクフォース委員としてfeature頂きました。同タスクフォースを通じてCCUS白書を共同執筆した後、今はCCUS事業用の共同操業協定(JOA)及びCO2供給契約のモデル契約策定に取り組んでいます。世界各地の業界専門家と共に協業出来るので学びも多く、モデル契約完成後はより多くの業界関係者にモデル契約を多用いただく事で業界発展に貢献してまいります。CCUS白書の詳細(英語のみ)はhttps://lnkd.in/gAYsBvmG をご参照ください。
Thank you AIEN for the feature. After co-authoring the CCUS White Paper, I am now working towards developing the model contracts for the Joint Operating Agreement and CO2 Offtake Agreement for the CCUS industry. I learn a lot from working with industry experts from around the word. I look forward to contributing to the CCUS industry by completing the model contracts work and having these used by many industry stakeholders worldwide. Please use https://lnkd.in/gH39gerH to download the CCUS While Paper.

We had the second meeting with our Floating Future Project Advisory Committee today. There were very interesting discussions about how to connect science and citizens, science and business, and science and policy makers. What are the obstacles and challenges regarding upscaling of floating structures to contribute to the long term liveability in the Netherlands? And how can we address them in our research project and case studies.

🔎 Our new Director General as many other ERIC directors and representatives are attending the conference, focused on three following main issues, crucial for the present and future perspectives of the Research Infrastructures (RIs):
- RIs as key players of strategic autonomy in a changing global context;
- the socio-economic and environmental impact of RIs;
- the broad ecosystems of RIs.

🗣 The CCSA's Head of EU External Affairs Stefano Miriello recently chaired a panel discussion at a Belgo-British CCUS event hosted by the British Embassy Brussels.
The discussion explored the opportunities and challenges for a closer Belgo-British collaboration and a potential Europe-wide market for CO₂.
Thanks to the British Embassy Brussels for bringing stakeholders together for this important discussion on international collaboration.
#CCUS | #CarbonCapture | #NetZero
We had great insights and interesting discussions last Monday during our Belgo-British CCUS roundtable in Brussels.
Key stakeholders from both countries met to discuss how Belgium and the UK could collaborate to develop integrated CO2 capture and storage solutions.
Tomas Wyns set the scene by sharing his views on the status of the shift to net-zero as well as offering out-of-the-box suggestions on how policy can be enhanced to accelerate or overcome some of the challenges.
The opening presentation was followed by a panel discussion chaired by Stefano Miriello from Carbon Capture and Storage Association, which explored the opportunities and challenges for a closer Belgo-British collaboration and a potential Europe-wide market for CO2.
It was great to hear the insights from our industry panel Gabrielle Gauthey, Hanne TalboomPierre Girard and Leen Vanhamme on this.
Many thanks to all participants and we look forward to bringing these plans to the next level.”
One of the tasks I've been involved with - and very proud of - over the last year or two is the World Gold Council's support for the work explained in the short video (https://lnkd.in/ecHFFwJa), below. This 2-minute film introduces the work of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) in progressing potentially important research to accelerate the development of gold-based catalysts to convert captured CO2 into ‘syngas’ – a key building block for new fuels and materials.
Although only minuscule volumes of gold are used in such applications, science tells us it is the best material for this purpose. And this project is another reminder of gold’s significance in catalysing positive change, advancing our knowledge and capacity to contribute to advanced technologies, including those with the potential to accelerate decarbonisation.
The underlying science was first featured in our The Golden Thread documentary series https://lnkd.in/eCi_AiEW) but, since that was released, we have now built a strong collaborative relationship with the team at the NRC, and it has been a pleasure and privilege to work with them as they strive to develop this application and how such research is practiced.
