The European CCS Demonstration Project Network was established in 2009 by the European Commission to accelerate the deployment of large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) projects. The network shares technical and project management information between its current members, which are four of the most advanced CCS demonstration projects in Europe. It also aims to create a global information-sharing community for CCS projects. The network provides benefits such as access to project data, experts, and relationships to help members address challenges and promote CCS technologies.
