This report is compiled by Innovation Norway as part of a joint project with Gassnova SF.
The purpose is to maintain an updated overview of CCS projects and strategies around the world, and the report will be updated twice per year. This is the 6th version.
The report is written by Innovation Norway “CCS task team” which consists of:
- (project manager), Tokyo
- Ms. Alana Prashad, Toronto

Contributions have been given from other Innovation Norway international offices, and from various Norwegian embassy counsellors.
The global survey is not complete, as it is covering only the following countries: USA, Canada, UK, Germany, Japan, Australia and China. There are significant CCS activities in other EU countries such as Netherlands, France and Eastern Europe, but they are not comprehensively covered in this version of the report and may not be fully up to date.
The project scope is to collect information and compile a report from these regions addressing:
- Governmental programs and political ambitions related to CO2 CO2 management, especially CCS
- Public funding an programs dedicated for CCS research and demonstration projects
- Listing of current, completed and planned CCS projects
- Listing of main CCS technology companies and institutions
- Brief overview of CCS research organizations
The methods used to collect and qualify information has been meetings and conversation with key persons with the CCS community in each region; combined with extensive data search in media and on Internet.
