US-China talks praise Guangdong province Carbon Capture project

The Guandong offshore CO2 project has been praised during talks between the US and China for achievements in developing carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) and recognised for progress on its detailed engineering design. The initiative is one of six pairs of projects being run through the UK-China CCUS Centre, which is backed by the US Department of Energy and the National Development and Reform Commission of China. Other CCUS activities between the US and China include site visits, knowledge exchange and the exchange of researchers. The Centre was founded in 2013 after the signing of a ten-year agreement on research collaboration, tasked with the development of CCUS technologies and other near-zero emissions projects.
