Sammendrag
The Norwegian national program for RD&D within CCS (CLIMIT) changed focus towards more international collaboration in 2017. The program has since then allocated approximately 20 percent of the available budget for international joint calls, primarily through the calls set up by the ACT transnational partnership. ACT is the abbreviation for Accelerating CCS technologies, and funding agencies from 16 countries, provinces and regions are collaborating on joint calls and knowledge sharing within this partnership. The effect of allocating a fifth of the available CLIMIT funds to international calls, has led to a shift from basic to applied research and consequently to larger projects of higher industrial interest. The international projects have managed to raise awareness of CCUS as a tool to combat global warming in a much more pronounced way than is normally seen in national RD&D projects.
