Memorial University—in collaboration with Hibernia and Hebron Projects—has received $3M from the Government of Newfoundland and Labrador to lead a project aimed at maximizing carbon storage potential in the province. This two-year project will build Memorial’s capacity in geological carbon storage by enhancing laboratory facilities, advancing laboratory methods, and engaging in outreach activities and collaboration with industry experts. The project also seeks to assist in the development of highly qualified personnel in the emerging technologies associated with carbon capture and storage. “When government, industry and academia work collaboratively to find innovative solutions to global issues, everyone wins,” said Memorial VP (Research) Dr Tana Allen.
