The focused workstreams will cover aspects related to transportation, storage, technology, and market development of:

  • Carbon dioxide
  • Low carbon hydrogen
  • e-fuels (including ammonia, methanol, etc.)
  • Renewable fuels (SAF via HEFA, etc.)
  • Eventual others

This Committee shall comprise:

  • Individuals from member companies who have an interest in hydrogen and associated technologies such as carbon capture and storage
  • Co-opted additional non-members who provide the Committee with specialist input

The Energy Transition Committee is aligned with IPLOCA’s Innovation Committee and its Energy Transition Group, supporting the identification of relevant technologies and market trends. It also serves as a strategic mechanism for the innovation team, acting as a focal point for sharing information and insights related to the following workstreams:

  • Policy
  • Standards
  • Technologies
  • Materials
  • Research and Development

Other common objectives include the following:

  • The coordination of news and technical articles, communications, and events where appropriate to promote the objectives of the Committee
  • To provide forums to engage, consult and influence major stakeholders
  • To provide IPLOCA members with prospects to engage with stakeholders to investigate opportunities within the sector and provide means to introduce their services and innovations
  • To engage with other organisations and develop alliances to support the Committee’s objectives
  • To provide relevant and specific content that can be used in the Road to Success as examples of best practice
