IPAC-CO2 was established to meet the needs of industry, regulators and the public.

The Environmental Non-Government Organization (ENGO) works to gain public and regulator confidence in the geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a sustainable energy and environmental option for the mitigation of GHG emissions into the atmosphere.

IPAC-CO2’s work is critical to realizing the potential of an emerging Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) value chain from an industry perspective, meeting the emission reduction targets committed to by governments including the G20 and recognition of CCS as a Clean Development Mechanism (CDM).

Carbon capture and storage has been identified by the United Nations International Panel on Climate Change as one of the most promising near term technologies for the rapid reduction of global CO2 emissions.

IPAC-CO2 does applied rather than theoretical research.

Decisions made by IPAC-CO2 regarding the provision of services and the development of relationships are guided by four basic principles:

• Transparency
• Honesty
• Independence
• Co-Operation
