Results and impacts from ACT presented at GHGT-16

A paper presenting results and impacts from ACT was presented at the GHG-16 conference.

The first three ACT calls resulted in € 100 M in funding for 33 international research, development and innovation (RD&I) projects. The added value of the joint international effort is alignment of national RD&I strategies and larger projects with higher impact than what would have been possible with only national projects. The projects funded by ACT have closed knowledge gaps, established well-functioning RD&I collaboration across borders, built relations between academia and industry, and made important contributions to dissemination of key messages beyond the scientific community

ACT Knowledge Sharing Workshop 2024

The ACT & with CETP TRI3 Knowledge Sharing Workshop 2024 was hosted by the Research Council of Norway in Oslo 11-12 September 2024.

The main target group was all ongoing ACT and CETP projects within CCUS but the workshop was open for everybody who is interested in CCUS. There were more than 60 physical participants and close to 30 virtual participants

The objective was to share knowledge and experiences and build networks. By doing so we aim to to make a significant contribution from CCUS research and innovation communities to large-scale deployment of CCUS.
