CO2GeoNet The CO2GeoNet Association has a wealth of experience in CO2 geological storage research. As a not-for-profi t network with over 300 researchers from 19 countries, we are the largest scientifi c community in this particular field in the world. CO2GeoNet’s mission is to provide scien- tifi c advice, expertise, training and capacity building to all interested parties, in- cluding regulators, local communities and the general public. As a UNFCCC accredited non-governmental organisa- tion, we provide multidisciplinary and independent advice to all those who need it. CO2GeoNet was recently awarded ln this issue: • Talk to us! • ENOS - New exciting research initiative • GeoEnergy Test Bed - progress with characterisation • Sulcis summer school on CCS technologies • ECAC Symposium on adaptation and mitigation measures New exciting research initiative ENOS, another initiative of CO2GeoNet 1) Developing, testing and demon- c.

The school was co-organised by CO2GeoNet and took place at the Sotacarbo Research Center of Carbonia, Sardinia (Italy). After an introductory session the Summer School addressed the topics ‘CO2 capture approaches and technologies’, ‘CO2 utilisation technologies’, and ‘CO2 storage’. The program was complemented by visits to the Sotacarbo pilot platform and laboratories, the Serbariu Old Mine Museum and a guided tour to the impressive underground complex of Porto Flavia Sergio Persoglia (right), Secretary General, impressed as well as excellent social side events.

This offered the opportunity to communicate the important role CCS can play in reducing emissions and that the technology is fl exible and ready to be rolled out globally to a scientifi c audi- ence working in parallel to understand our changing climate. The presentation attracted several questions on how CCS works, where it is being demonstrated and how security of storage can CO2GeoNet at ECAC Symposium (photo courtesy S. Persoglia) be ensured.

The project therefore tries to represent how the other Member States are behaving in relation to historical extractive waste and tries to identify or document case studies on their management, also in relation to the circular economy to evaluate their possible recovery as raw materials.
