Full Agenda

Wednesday, January 18, 2012
London
The Geological Society

Do you think that carbon capture and storage is a dead idea? Think again. At our Jan 18th London forum, for just £100, you can hear from the people who are actually turning CCJ into a business - without being dependent on government support which may or may not happen - or who have viable business proposals to use carbon capture to extend the life of the North Sea by decades, leading to enormous increases in business, jobs and revenue to the British government.

Hear from companies like Altona Energy, which are securing financing from Beijing for a coal mine, coal to liquids plant with carbon dioxide storage in Adelaide, Australia, producing diesel with very low carbon emissions at just $0.33 a litre of diesel.

The event gives a discussion format to give you plenty of opportuntiy to ask the experts how they get over the hurdles for CCS - regulatory, financing, convincing investors of the long term business plan - so you can get answers to your questions which your company has about how the industry might emerge.

Learn about business opportunities carbon storage might offer for subsurface specialist firms.

We're not going to hype carbon capture and storage - there are no certainties that it will develop into a large business - but provide you with the advice and information you can go back to your company and help assess the chances, and help get your business as well aligned as possible for the business opportunities with might develop over the coming decade.

Carbon capture and storage is a fast moving industry - many people think it is moving fast off the agenda - but the truth is different - it could be a large scale industry very quickly.

For just a £100 ticket, you can get a seat in one of the world's potentially fastest growing and most exciting industries. Limited places, register now to secure yours.
