Introduction
Status of knowledge sharing
International knowledge sharing
Improving knowledge sharing
![Page 3: Panel 3. Delivering collaboration to ensure the deployment of CCS - Sean McClowry, Global CCS Institute](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081602/5481768cb3795996468b456f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Many CCS knowledge networks exist, examples include
International CCS Regulatory Network
European CCS Project Demonstration Network
Bastor 2
SECARB
Alberta Purity Study
International Carbon Capture and Storage Test Centre Network
CCS Costs Network
A number of capacity development initiatives
Japanese Knowledge Network
Korean Knowledge Network

Networks are hard work, global networks are harder
If knowledge networks are not designed or managed properly, little tends to be achieved.
Many knowledge networks have a country or regional focus.
We need to improve international knowledge sharing, but:o International knowledge sharing can be more difficulto Barriers to sharing are more significant and the
incentives fewer. We need to follow the lessons learnt from our most
successful networks.

How we can improve international knowledge sharing
• Focus the network on solving problems in a collaborative way. • Clearly identify knowledge gaps and areas of expertise.
Clear outcomes
• Remove the focus on sharing confidential information (CI). • Leverage the large amounts of public information already available.
Practical approaches to information sharing
• Use advanced digital technologies for international knowledge sharing. • Make use of the digital systems of the Global CCS Institute.
Digital technology for better connectivity
• Some content from the network should be written for an external audience.• Promoting key content to non-CCS practitioners should be a key priority.
Engagement outside the CCS community

There is very little interest in CCS information compared with renewables.

Not surprisingly, investments track interest from the public.

Closing recommendations
International knowledge sharing can work, if we:o Build on our existing networks,o Leverage existing frameworks and digital platforms.
To drive CCS forward it is important to engage beyond our immediate community:o The web offers many opportunities to do this
effectively. The Institute has new initiatives underway that we think
can help solve this problem.
