IPAC-CO2 is a collaborative community of practice for CCS research organizations and professionals with an interest in risk and performance assessment of geological storage of CO2. It is a central access point for researchers to connect, learn and collaborate in the development of best practices, standards and tools for the mitigation of risk in geological storage of CO2. Built upon an advanced online platform, the community provides an enhanced environment for collaboration, shared learning, knowledge management and social networking.
The issues around carbon capture and storage are global in nature. Several groups and partnerships around the world are conducting research into geological storage of CO2, with risk assessment as an important component of the work. IPAC-CO2 seeks to connect and support this expertise and build confidence for implementing CCS on a large scale.
