ACT

ACT is an international initiative to establish CO₂ capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) as a tool to combat global warming.

ACT means Accelerating CCS Technologies, and the ambition of the 16 partners is to fund research and innovation projects that can lead to safe and cost-effective CCUS technology.

Since ACT’s start in 2015 participating organizations have allocated 108 million euro in funding for 39 international research, development and innovation (RD&I) projects.

The European Commission is acknowledged for co-funding within the Horizon 2020 programme (project 691712).
