Q/A – discussion

While the concept paper you received from Ragnhild provided some details about the CO₂ DataShare platform and the potential value of your participation, we expect you’ll want to understand better what this is all about. Therefore, we invite you to this ACT-CO₂DataShare webinar to provide you greater detail. In the webinar we will present what CO₂ DataShare is, what we mean by “data”, and why we think the curation of data for sharing to the international community of CCS stakeholders has great value. You will also hear from data owners who are currently sharing their data on CO₂ DataShare. And we will wrap up the webinar leaving time for your questions. 

As Ragnhild pointed out, participation in CO₂ DataShare is voluntary.  The aim of this webinar is to better inform you on the CO₂ DataShare concept and invite those who are interested to continue a dialog with us on how to participate. Feel free to forward this invitation if there are others that will coordinate the project.

CO₂ DataShare is not intended to be a simple repository of project data. Our quest is to curate selected high-value, high quality datasets for sharing globally with other researchers and stakeholders. What we seek is the opportunity to discuss with you the data your project has or will be generating and if these data meet that criteria from YOUR perspective. The choice to share these data will be yours. What we are offering is a highly visible data sharing portal that provides ease of access to quality datasets, which collectively will facilitate and expand upon the trend in data digitalization that is serving to accelerate the global clean energy transition.
