Capital projects we develop today have a significant positive and negative influence on corporate decarbonization goals. In this on-demand webinar, members of IPA’s Carbon Management & Sustainability team highlight the tools and frameworks developed by IPA, in collaboration with industry subject-matter experts, to help project organizations and project teams benchmark their GHG performance against industry peers and identify emerging best practices that lead to an optimal low-carbon and low-cost project performance.
We also discuss Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) projects as a key decarbonization lever for the industry. Through IPA’s evaluation of numerous CCUS projects in recent years, we highlight cost and schedule performance trends and discuss key risks that are hindering more projects from taking final investment decision (FID). Finally, we share details of IPA’s efforts to continue growing our capabilities to help CCUS project teams make better early phase decisions.
