DESCRIPTION:Event details at http://dcgreenscene.com/event-detail/713 \n\n
  \nThe capture and geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO²) is widely c
 onsidered a viable mitigation strategy for the GHG emissions that result f
 rom the large-scale usage of fossil fuels. But despite the support CCS tec
 hnologies have garnered thus far\, there are many hurdles to overcome befo
 re they become a practical reality. The ACI CCS Summit aims to address tho
 se hurdles\, by bringing together both capture and storage stakeholders to
  develop a greater understanding of current and future needs and an integr
 ated approach for advancing CCS commercialization.\nLast year’s acclaime
 d conference attracted 100+ executives from federal and state government\,
  oil and gas companies\, power companies\, oilfield service providers\, te
 chnology solution providers\, equipment manufacturers\, investors\, enviro
 nmental NGOs\, and legal advisors. Building on that success\, this year’
 s summit will again feature renowned CCS thought-leaders\, and an agenda t
 hat identifies\, examines and offers solutions to the challenges that this
  nascent industry is faced with.\nWith climate change legislation looming\
 , and the possibility of EPA regulation relating to CO² emissions\, many 
 companies are taking a proactive approach to CCS\, despite the associated 
 costs. This event gives you the opportunity to gain insight and meet with 
 those who are driving the adoption of CCS. You’ll hear first hand from t
 hought-leaders who are at the forefront of the current CCS activity in the
  U.S. Whether you’re evaluating the viability of carbon capture and stor
 age as a means to reduce your CO² emissions\, or you’re a solution prov
 ider in the value chain seeking new business opportunities\, you won’t f
 ind a more comprehensive\, strategic and insightful event than this one.\n
 Event highlights include:\n\n• A keynote presentation by Frederick Palme
 r\, senior vice president of government relations for Peabody Energy• An
 alysis of the current global status of CCS by Bloomberg New Energy Finance
 • Results to date of coal CCS demonstration projects by Southern Company
 • Examination of state technical and economic analyses conducted to dete
 rmine the feasibility of CCS• Resolutions and conclusions reached thus f
 ar on the long term liability of sequestered CO²• Given the possibility
  of expanded off shore drilling\, an evaluation of the feasibility\, cost 
 and risk of sequestering CO² off shore• The announcement of guidelines 
 for effective CCS community engagement established by World Resources Inst
