                                          London/Canberra (2010-2011) - This global study, "Global Storage Resources Gap Analysis for Policy Makers", was performed by Geogreen for the IEA-GHG as commissioned by the Global CCS Institute. For the study Geogreen specifically performed a global "desk-based" storage suitability screening using publicly available geological data. In addition, Geogreen developed cost models, GIS and database implementation and analysis, CO2 storage project assessments, and ultimately performed an economic analysis using existing project data and locations so as to estimate a potential number of integrated CCS projects under development going to 2020. Furthermore, Geogreen analyzed how the 2050 emission-reduction objectives could be reached and where would new projects be required (source-to-sink).

                                          Vienna (2010) - Geogreen completed a source-to-sink matching assessment that was then used for the UNIDO-IEA report: Technology Roadmap: Carbon Capture and Storage in Industrial Applications. The primary analyses performed by Geogreen included: source-to-sink matching for industrial emissions in non-OECD countries using the global storage suitability map produced for the IEA-GHG publication Global Storage Resources Gap Analysis for Policy Makers, as well as industrial CCS project development projections for the different regions of the study, identification of key road blocks for CCS deployment in developing economies, and recommendations to policy makers on how to best proceed.

                                          France, the Netherlands, and the North Sea (2010-2012) - The European Commission FP7 Funded COCATE R&D project focuses on emission management and transport. The aim of the study is to assess the potential for flue gas or other fluid pooling so as to devise common emission collection systems for industries within the area around Le Havre and to design a CO2 export system for transporting the emissions to the Rotterdam hub, from where they will be sent to an eventual storage location in the North Sea. For both the local CO2/emissions transport/collection networks and the cross-border CO2 export systems, a range of technical options are proposed and assessed from risk, economic, and network management standpoints. Geogreen is the leader of the economic work package and is deeply involved in the design tasks. Geogreen's tasks involved the emissions source clustering and collective emissions treatment (pooling) scenario development, optimization of the emissions/CO2 collection systems and transport network as well as the economic analysis and cost optimization of the overall CO2 capture, transport and the eventual export scenarios to Rotterdam.
