CCCSTN - Canadian CO2 Capture & Storage Technology Network

The Canadian CO₂ Capture and Storage Technology Network (CCCSTN)

About Us

This Canadian Network has been established due to the growing interest in the use of CO2 capture and storage (CCS) technologies, both in Canada and abroad, as a greenhouse gas mitigation option and as a pollution abatement technology. CCCSTN provides information for the coordination of research, development and deployment efforts of national CCS initiatives as well as timely information on technology advancements. On this site, you can find a network of experts, current project information and links to other related information which will accelerate the development and deployment of CCS in Canada.

The key tasks of CCCSTN include the following:

To facilitate information sharing across all interested parties involved in CO2 C&S technology in Canada
To coordinate outreach and communication activities
To conduct workshops on specific themes
To provide a forum for coordinating the response of governments to requests for support for technology-based projects
To coordinate Canada's interaction with international activities
To facilitate access to financial support for key projects
To identify technology gaps and barriers that prevent CO2 C&S moving forward
To provide a coherent picture of CO2 C&S technology to interested parties.
