The consortium

An international consortium was formed to execute the research, design, construction and operation within the project. It is formed by research institutes, universities and companies from the Netherlands (TNO-NITG and Delft University of Technology), Poland (Central Mining Institute), Germany (DBI-GUT and Aachen University of Technology), France (IFP, Gaz de France, GAZONOR and Air Liquide), Australia (CSIRO), U.S.A. (Advanced Resources International) and by the IEA Greenhouse Gas R&D Programme. Feedback to the project from industry and governmental organisations is realised through the participation of Shell International, Jcoal (Japan) and the Federal Region of Wallonie, Belgium (through the Faculté Polytechnique de Mons) in an enduser group. Overall co-ordination of the project is in the hands of TNO-NITG.

Funding is provided by the European Commission under the programme ENERGY, ENVIRONMENT AND SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT and by the government of Poland and the Netherlands (via Novem).
