We are proud to announce that Peipei Chen from the University of Cambridge (UCAM) will be bringing the AURORA Project’s insights to the upcoming World CCUS Conference 2025, taking place 1–4 September 2025 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

At the conference, Peipei will deliver an exciting presentation titled:
“Exploring the economic scalability of European CCUS clusters”.

This presentation delves into the economic feasibility of clustering CCUS projects across Europe – a topic at the heart of AURORA’s vision to facilitate integrated, solvent-based capture systems at an industrial scale.

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.

We Invite You to Join

  • Attend the session to hear how CCUS clusters could transform regional energy systems.

  • Connect with Peipei at the conference to learn more about AURORA’s economic modelling.

  • Follow AURORA updates as we continue supporting scalable, solvent-based CCUS 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.
