ACT ERANET under H2020 has ended - Final Reports available

/

ACT has now successfully completed 5 years of a productive and collaborative trajectory and has officially ended as a European Commission Initiative. ACT as a transnational funding scheme and knowledge sharing platform for CCUS projects and results was conceived in 2015. It was officially kicked off in early 2016 as a five-year initiative between funding partners from 9 countries as an ERANET scheme under H2020. Since then, the ACT consortium has grown to 16 countries/regions (including the USA, the Alberta region in Canada and India). In these years, ACT has succeeded in providing great results, impacting on the CCUS scientific community, the industry and society. The  Final Deliverables to the European Commission can give an overview and a detailed report on what ACT has envisaged and what it has achieved so far. The follow-up, monitoring and close interaction with the running projects will however continue. The ACT2-projects end in the autumn 2022/winter 2023 and the ACT3-projects will end in the autumn 2024/winter 2025.
