Sponsorship ProspectusCarbon capture and storage (CCS) is a key technology for tackling climate change by capturing, transporting and permanently geologically storing industrial carbon dioxide emissions. Australia is at the forefront of making CCS a technical and commercial reality.

National CCS Week, from 28 November to 3 December 2010, is a new Australian-based event providing a focus for CCS as an essential part of the global greenhouse gas mitigation portfolio.

The major event of National CCS Week is the 2010 National CCS Conference, to be held Sunday to Tuesday, 28 – 30 November at the Park Hyatt Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

» go beyond the technical to include public engagement

» broad involvement including NGOs, students, unions and industry including oil & gas, steel, cement and power generators

» provide an annual focus for Australian CCS projects and R&D for a national and international audience

The conference content will include:

» CCS research and technology

» economic, social and policy issues relating to CCS

» international collaboration and knowledge-sharing

» addressing barriers to global deployment of CCS

» updates on Australian and international CCS projects
