Abstract

The problem of global warming is a key challenge. One means to prevent climate change is to reduce the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. This can be achieved using CO2 capture and storage (CCS) technology. Due to the relative novelty of the technology, low level of experience, and high risk of implementation, in practice society often displays a negative attitude towards CCS projects. Thus, it is necessary to develop a targeted strategy to popularize CO2 capture and storage technology. Based on an extensive literature review and the experience of implementation of CCS projects in different countries, this study demonstrates the necessity of applying the deficit, contextual, lay expertise, and public participation models to promote CCS technology. As a result, the factors influencing the choice of promotion tools are identified, and the measures to popularize CCS technology, depending on the stage of its implementation, are determined. Recommendations for the improvement of CCS public databases are developed. The methodologies used this study include case studies, system-oriented analysis, and stakeholder management tools.

Highlights

  • Technological development has a significant influence on modern society and has helped address a number of global problems, including climate change, resource depletion, and ecosystem loss [1,2,3,4].in recent decades, the academic community has faced questions about the development of the theoretical aspects of human knowledge and the popularization of the results of scientific studies [5,6,7]

  • The development of a strategy for carbon dioxide capture and storage technology popularization needs to be carried out taking into account the following provisions: 1

  • The popularization of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) projects can be based on raising public awareness of environmental problems and the perception of CO2 capture and storage technology as the means to solve them

Summary

Introduction

Technological development has a significant influence on modern society and has helped address a number of global problems, including climate change, resource depletion, and ecosystem loss [1,2,3,4]. In recent decades, the academic community has faced questions about the development of the theoretical aspects of human knowledge and the popularization of the results of scientific studies [5,6,7]. To obtain a social license to introduce new technologies, federal, state, and local governments, the scientific community, and private businesses should develop and implement goal-oriented strategies aimed at receiving approval for their activities from a wide range of stakeholders [8]. The problem of climate change has become one of the most discussed issues internationally. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) [9],
