Decarbonizing Industry Using Carbon Capture: Norway Full Chain CCSGlobal CCS Institute
Industrial sectors such as steel, cement, iron, and chemicals production are responsible for over 20 percent of global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. To be on track to meet greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets established as part of the Paris Climate Accord, all sectors must find solutions to rapidly decarbonize, and carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is the only path for energy-intensive industries.
This webinar will explore how one country, Norway, is working to realize a large-scale Full Chain CCS project, where it is planning to apply carbon capture technology to several industrial facilities. This unique project explores capturing CO2 from three different industrial facilities - an ammonia production plant, a waste-to-energy plant, and a cement production facility. Captured CO2 will be then transported by ship to a permanent off-shore storage site operated as part of a collaboration between Statoil, Total, and Shell. When operational, Norway Full Chain CCS will capture and permanently store up to 1.5 million tons of CO2 per year.
During this webinar, Michael Carpenter, Senior Adviser at Gassnova, will provide an overview of the Norway Full Chain CCS, and discuss the value that Norway aims to derive from it. The key stakeholders working on this exciting project, and how they cooperate, will be also discussed. Gassnova is a Norwegian state enterprise focusing on CCS technology, which manages the Norway Full Chain CCS project.

Compared with other sources of energy, oil and gas continue to become primary sources of energy in Indonesia with the highest level of consumption. Apart from propping up almost one third of national revenue, oil and gas also significantly contribute to create job opportunities, supply the need of fuel, petrochemical industry which in turn effectively enhances investment and economy.
As a natural resource contained within the bowel of the earth, the constitution of the Republic of Indonesia asserts that the ownership and enterpreneurship of national oil and gas industry is controlled by the state and immensely benefitted to the welfare of people accordingly (constitution 1945, article 33). Furthermore, it is asserted through the law 22/2001 on oil and gas that the control by the state is administered by the government as the holder of mining right. It means, the government is entitled with authority to administer the exploration and exploitation of oil and gas throughout Indonesian territory.

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change.
How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security?
This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system.
OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.

Problem Formulation, a common practice in pesticide risk assessment, was highlighted as a useful approach for addressing uncertainties in data requirements for biopesticides.
The seminar featured presentations from various perspectives, including industry, regulatory bodies, and academia. Topics included the history and principles of Problem Formulation, industry perspectives on Problem Formulation and how it is applied internally for microbial pesticides, regulatory approaches, and specific case studies. The seminar provided an overview of the challenges, considerations, and potential solutions in harmonising Problem Formulation for biopesticide risk assessment.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

Key questions on financing industrial decarbonisation: Daniel Duma, LeadIT
1. Daniel Duma – Research Fellow
Stockholm Environment Institute
Key questions on financing
industrial decarbonization
2. Three types of investments to reduce industrial emissions
Increase efficiency of
existing processes
Increase circularity (reuse,
recycle)
Green primary production –
breakthrough technologies
3. First set of questions
To what extent are investments in efficiency leading to lock-in
effects?
How much priority should be given to shorter-term emissions
reductions in existing industrial processes ?
Does the answer differ in developing regions?
4. The business case for each type in developing countries
Type of investment Business case Finance
Efficiency in current
processes
Viable in high energy
prices scenario
Where an issue, blended
finance most suitable
Circularity
improvements
Already commercial for
steel / regulation needed
for others
Commercial finance for
steel– policy needed for
others
Breakthrough
technologies
Cost disadvantage plus
unproven technologies
R&D/demonstration
finance
5. RE versus ID – business case challenges & solutions
Renewable energy (RE) Industrial
decarbonization
Solutions to explore
PPAs secure revenue side. Risk
based on credit & policy, covered
through guarantees and PRI
Global competitive market, risk
goes beyond a single country /
counterparty
Commitments from ‘corporate
climate leaders’, public
procurement, CCfDs
Bankable RE - low return/low
risk – attractive for long term
investors
Riskier even w/o
decarbonization. Unproven tech
– high risk for conventional
finance
Gov & DFI leading role then
investors seeking exposure to
low-carbon assets
Mature tech and declining costs,
competitive with fossil
Unproven tech, higher
production costs expected
Like RE, combo ↑rev ↓cost ↑cost
of alternatives (CCFDs).
6. Second set of questions
How do we create stronger off-take signals for green industrial
products in developing regions?
How can the risk profile be brought down to levels where
financial risk mitigation becomes relevant?
What sources of capital would be willing to take on the risks for
first-of-a-kind low-emissions production in developing countries?
7. Lessons from Swedish case
Sweden hosts advanced green hydrogen-based steel pilots
They are close to reaching agreements on financing expansion to
commercial scale
Useful to explore what made them possible
8. Enabling factors for green steel in Sweden
Policy
Net-zero by 2045
Fossil-free Sweden – roadmapping
Expectation of cheap clean power in
North
ETS (end free allocation) + CBAM
Support at project level
Govt. + EU grants
Loan guarantees for industry
Demand signals based on net zero
commitments
Offtake agreements with vehicle
makers
9. Third set of questions
How can similar enabling conditions for industry transitions be
stimulated in developing regions?
What are the realistic first steps and where are the hardest gaps
to overcome?
What is the role of climate finance in providing support to first
movers and what are the most important modalities of that
support?
