Presenting at World CCUS Conference 2025 in Bergen, Norway

από | Αυγ 21, 2025

We are proud to announce that Peipei Chen from the University of Cambridge (UCAM) successfully presented cutting-edge research on European CCUS clusters at the prestigious World Conference on Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (WCCUS) 2025, held from September 1-4 in Bergen, Norway.

Event Overview

The World CCUS Conference is a premier interdisciplinary event that convenes top experts in carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS). With over 500 expected delegates, 140+ technical presentations, and 100+ global speakers, the conference is a hotbed for technical exchange, industry insights, and networking

AURORA’s Contribution

Peipei Chen from the UCAM, a key partner in the AURORA consortium, delivered a compelling presentation titled “Exploring the economic scalability of European CCUS clusters.” This research represents a significant milestone in understanding how carbon capture, utilization and storage technologies can be economically scaled across Europe to meet ambitious climate targets.

Why This Matters for AURORA

  • Cluster economies: By exploring cost-sharing and scale efficiencies among geographically paired CCUS projects, AURORA supports more affordable and profitable deployment strategies.

  • Techno-economic rigor: Peipei’s analysis combines engineering insights with economic modelling—vital for crafting viable CEUS chain business cases.

  • Pan-European relevance: From industrial hubs to capture clusters, this research speaks directly to policy-makers, industry leaders, and innovators shaping Europe’s low-carbon future.

Looking Forward

The insights presented at WCCUS 2025 represent just one facet of AURORA’s comprehensive research program. The project continues to advance understanding of CCUS technologies and their economic deployment, contributing to Europe’s efforts to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. The research findings will be incorporated into ongoing policy discussions and industrial planning processes, helping to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon economy across Europe.

About the AURORA Project

The AURORA project is a pioneering initiative aimed at revolutionising the cement industry’s approach to sustainability. By leveraging cutting-edge technologies and innovative methodologies, the project strives to significantly reduce the carbon footprint associated with cement production. SINTEF, one of Europe’s largest independent research organisations, leads the project, bringing together a consortium of experts and stakeholders from across the industry.
