Carbon capture and storage - CCS

The Government’s carbon capture and storage strategy

The Norwegian government has developed a strategy for CCS, which aims at identifying measures to promote technology development and to reduce the costs of CCS. A feasibility study report presented in July 2016 shows that realising a full-scale CCS chain in Norway by 2022 is possible and at lower costs than for projects considered in Norway earlier.

CLIMIT and Centres for Environment-friendly Energy Research (FME)

CLIMIT is a national programme for research, development and demonstration of technologies for capture, transport and storage of CO2 from fossil-based power production and industry.

Technology Centre Mongstad (TCM)

Technology Centre Mongstad (TCM) is the world's largest facility for testing and development of carbon capture technologies. TCM contributes to global efforts to combat climate change, and is a key part of Norway's CCS policies.
