Join our team at Climate Week NYC from September 17th to 24th in New York. This annual event happens in partnership with the United Nations General Assembly and is run in coordination with the United Nations and the City of New York.

The event will tackle three main questions:

  • Climate action is not moving fast enough across the globe and those in positions of power have a responsibility to act without delay. Where must investment be channelled, and what vested interests need to be held accountable?    
  • We have made huge strides evidenced by the billions committed by the US, China and the EU boost green technology and energy security. We know we have the solutions to the climate crisis. But how do we ensure they are implemented?    
  • Where have we picked up our biggest wins so far and how can we use the collective will of the climate community to remain inspired, stay the course and continue to drive climate action, fast? 

The theme of “we can, we will” reflects determination, focus, but also a hopeful promise, and a call to action to do it together. It touches upon the action we need to take now, but also the need to look ahead and explore new opportunities.

We’ve seen some promising wins when it comes to renewables and financing, but we can’t rest on our laurels. We’re entering a new phase where we need to look at what comes next: tripling clean investments, finding new solutions, taking concrete action, exploring new opportunities and solutions, and breaking down barriers together.

About North American Conference: Throughout the event we will be looking at practical solutions to scale up and speed up the adoption of new technologies, refine business models and cut through the clutter of potential options to fast-track industrials towards net zero.

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is a game-changer with huge potential but what does it mean for industrials, what are the mechanisms and timeframes for funding deployment? Hear from government representatives from federal and state level, along with leading advisors and industrials on how the IRA has shifted strategies and priorities, the nuts and bolts of how to benefit from 45Q, including the permitting process for Class VI wells.

Industrials accept there is no silver bullet and a toolbox approach to technology is needed, but with so many options on the table, or in the pipeline, where to start? Time is precious! A key aim of the event is to help cut through the noise and encourage as many face-to-face interactions with technology and solution providers that offer proven and economical options, that could potential lead to further discussions and partnerships.

Decarb Connect’s objective is to harness the collective energy and expertise of the group around key questions and barriers to decarbonization. The purpose of the event is to make meaningful connections through in-depth working groups, roundtable discussions and networking activities which will go beyond simply exchanging business cards. There will be more than 200 leaders in Houston for strategic, pan-regional discussions and the opportunity to meet and forge essential new partnerships.

Register for the conference, here.

About Carbon Capture USA: At the summit, industry leaders will meet in California, USA to explore next-generation technologies for carbon capture, utilization, storage, and transportation to meet net-zero emissions targets.

Carbon dioxide levels in the Earth’s atmosphere have increased to critical levels and tackling climate change is one of the biggest global challenges that require immediate action. Industries and government agencies are now looking at innovative ways to create a circular carbon economy.

Carbon capture, utilization, and storage, or CCUS, is an emerging technology for reducing carbon emissions produced from energy production, heavy industries, and transportation. The captured CO₂ can be used as a valuable resource or permanently stored deep underground in geological formations, providing the foundation for carbon removal from the atmosphere. By creating new CCUS-based business models, industries can significantly reduce their carbon footprints and address the climate-energy challenges for the modern era.

The key focus for this year’s event will be “Working in collaboration with Industry” by sharing expertise, building capacity, and providing advice and support so that CCUS can play an integral role in reducing carbon emissions. Government agencies, global corporations, research bodies, and non-government organizations committed to learning and adopting CCUS technologies will participate in this event.

Key topics on this year’s agenda include:

  • Making an economic assessment for carbon capture, utilization, and storage
  • Reducing carbon emissions by industry sector – Challenges and Opportunities
  • New CCUS technologies and engineering know-how in developing the infrastructure
  • Supporting the industry with upcoming regulations and new environmental policies
  • Building a business model for CCUS with cost-reduction and commercialization
  • Latest projects and transportation networks for CO2 storage and utilization

Join our team next week in Houston, TX for the Carbon Capture Technology Expo North America held from June 14-15th.

This two-day event is dedicated to discussing the increasing role that Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage (CCUS) will play in the transition to a net-zero carbon economy. Leading experts from around the world will discuss the latest advances in new technology for carbon capture, storage, and transport, as well as unique ways of utilizing CO2 to produce net-zero fuels and for other manufacturing processes.

Register, here.

About Carbon Capture Technology Expo: Carbon capture, utilization and storage technologies (CCUS) are set to play a crucial role in the world’s future decarbonization efforts. Alongside other mitigation techniques and further advances in renewable energy innovations, they are increasingly seen as powerful – and necessary – tools to reduce and potentially eliminate carbon dioxide emissions from entering the atmosphere as well as removing existing CO2 from the air.

Carbon Capture Technology Expo North America will unveil the very latest current and emerging technologies from some of the sector’s leading experts and energy leaders while providing a showcase for innovative models that can capture carbon’s potential by turning CO2 by-products into profitable applications for concrete, carbon fiber, polymers, food, fertilizers, liquid fuels, chemicals, graphene and more.

Naturally where there are opportunities there are challenges, not least in the cost-effective transportation and storage of industrial CO2, storage space and integrity, demand for CO2, incentivization and ROI, and the policies needed as well as the legal and regulatory frameworks. Possibly the most daunting challenge will be balancing the energy demands of a truly effective large-scale CCS infrastructure.

What is abundantly clear is that we need to accelerate and deploy CCS projects across industry sectors to achieve a critical mass of commercial deployment by 2030, in order to reach the economy-wide scale needed to meet mid-century decarbonization targets.

The will bring together more than 100 international speakers and over 400 delegates to debate and discuss the latest technologies and solutions, strategies, innovations, current and future regulations, by-products and strategies for captured CO2 and the latest and next-generation techniques and models to help foster a truly sustainable, cost-effective and resource-efficient CCUS sector.

Join Kanin Energy’s team at the Electricity Transformation Canada, happening from October 23rd to October 25th in Calgary, AB, at the BMO Center. This is an opportunity to connect, collaborate and capitalize on energy issues.

  • Connect in person with CanREA and its members.
  • Collaborate to access exclusive insight and make strategic connections with various stakeholders in the wind power, solar power and energy storage industries.
  • Capitalize and invest with confidence in Canada’s transformation to electricity by having access to the latest technologies and innovations.

Kanin Energy is able to provide baseload energy that is readily available power that can meet the requirements of an electricity grid at any time of day. In contrast, intermittent electricity is power that is not continuously available. Wind and solar energy are examples of intermittent electricity generation because while they complement each other, on their own they are only able to generate when there are sun and wind available. Waste Heat to Power from industrial processes generates baseload electricity because the processes it connects to are in operation continuously. In electricity markets, clean baseload power is a valuable component of the power mix for utilities decarbonizing their grids.
