pilotSTRATEGY project 2021-2026: âCO2 Geological Pilots in Strategic Territoriesâ
[EN] The pilotSTRATEGY (2021-2026) is investigating geological CO2 storage sites in industrial regions to support development of large-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS). It is focused on deep saline aquifersâporous rock formations filled with brine several kilometres below ground â which promise a large capacity for storing captured CO2. The goal of the characterisation is to assess the siteâs containment, injectivity, capacity, integrity, hydrodynamics, and monitorability in order to ensure safe and permanent storage of CO2.
PilotSTRATEGY covers the initial stages of project development up to the pre-final investment decision (pre-FID), regulatory approval and permitting of storage, and applied on selected structures of Paris Basin in France, the Lusitanian Basin in Portugal and the Ebro Basin in Spain, and in lower detail, in West Macedonia in Greece and Upper Silesia in Poland.The project has received funding from the European Unionâs Horizon 2020 programme (10.1
million Euros, No. 101022664).Peer reviewe
