The next in the Royal Academy of Engineering’s series of Technical briefings will see Professor Geoffrey Maitland CBE FREng and Dr Andrew Jamieson OBE FREng present an overview of the current technical state of engineered carbon capture and storage (CCS), what can be learned from other global projects and what opportunities there are for this platform technology, despite deployment in the UK lagging behind other countries.

These webinars were created to provide an opportunity for Fellows, academics and researchers to hear in detail topics aligned with the Academy’s strategy.
