Carbon Capture and Storage Association

This article is part of the Climate project of Spinwatch.

The CCSA is the trade association for the Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) industry. It was launched in March 2006 to represent the interests of its members in promoting CCS 'as a means of abating atmospheric emissions of carbon dioxide and, potentially, as a means of enhancing the production of fossil hydrocarbons'.

According to its website as of November 2009 'the Association benefits from a close working relationship with the UK Government and European Commission in developing an appropriate regulatory framework for CCS and influencing policy developments on an international level.'
