AURORA is preparing its second Stakeholder Forum (StF) to be held in Cambridge and online (hybrid meeting) from 15-17 (GMT) in January 2024. Our StF serves to guide AURORA’s developments and advise on next steps to drive market adoption of our capture technology.

On the agenda:

• • • RWE Innovation Center (partner of our sister project SCOPE – Sustainable OPEration of post-combustion Capture plants) will give a presentation about their experience from long term testing of the CESAR1 solvent.
    • ENI will give a presentation about the Ravenna Hub.

What would be your role?

• Participate actively in discussions concerning AURORA’s implementation and issues related to the project’s impact
• Contribute to knowledge sharing, dissemination and exploitation of project results
• Will not receive confidential information.
• Will only be invited to an “open” part of the project meetings (an online option will also be available) held every 6 months and to public dissemination and exploitation events organized by the AURORA consortium.
