What is SiteChar?

SiteChar is a European research project about CO2 storage. SiteChar started in January 2011 and will last 3 years.
 
Central to the Sitechar project is examining the technical, economic and societal requirements for a company to be allowed to store CO2 underground.
 
To this end, at five sites in different areas of Europe it is investigated whether the site would be suitable for storing CO2 in the future. Based on these investigations, SiteChar aims to provide a general method for evaluating whether sites are suitable for CO2 storage.
 
The Sitechar research program is dedicated to studying the sites and their characteristics. The SiteChar program is independent from decisions on CO2 storage at the selected sites.
