You will hear from

Abigail Stanley (Session Chair)

Senior E3S Case Author at Rolls-Royce SMR

Rich Denny

Managing Director at Northern Endurance Partnership

The Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) is one of the UK's flagship carbon transport and storage developments. Rich Denny will provide an overview of the project, its current status and its significance. Attendees will gain insights into recent innovation and engineering challenges associated with establishing large-scale CO2 transportation and storage infrastructure. Additionally, they will find out how projects such as the NEP are creating opportunities for professionals transitioning from oil and gas to low-carbon sectors. 

Saquib Sultan

Deputy Director of Technical Assurance (Temporary), Major Decarbonisation Projects, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero

Saquib Sultan will present the government's perspective on CCS, outlining current policy objectives, progress towards deployment and key challenges facing the sector. The discussion will also consider workforce requirements, employment opportunities and the importance of transferrable skills in supporting the UK's growing low-carbon economy.

Event format

This webinar will combine perspectives from both industry and government, to explore the role of CCS in the UK's net zero journey. It will begin with an introduction from the IOM3 Energy Transition Group committee, contextualising CCS within the wider energy transition webinar series. Expect a lively and interactive discussion examining how industry, government and the engineering community can collaborate to overcome challenges in delivering CCS at scale. The session concludes with a 15-minute Q&A
 

Why watch this on-demand webinar?

The energy transition is a global priority that impacts industry, policy, science, and careers across multiple technical disciplines. This session supports a rich and nuanced discussion on the role of CCS in furthering progress in net-zero, the impact of major projects such as the NEP, and the policy frameworks required to accelerate deployment.
