Climate Change Mitigation Technology for Business is one of the ten modules offered in our NITTP approved training programme ESG Empowerment Series – Environmental 101, a comprehensive curriculum that covers three key environmental categories.
*To be eligible for a NITTP subsidy , you must register for all 10 modules and achieve a minimum attendance of 70% across the training hours of all modules (see the table in Programme Structure and Outline). Upon meeting these criteria, you are eligible to apply for a reimbursement of up 2/3 of your course fees, subject to NITTP approval.
Module Highlight
Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS) have been recognized as a vital tool for climate change mitigation, especially being a negative emission technology essential for achieving carbon neutrality goals on time.
This course will cover the following topics:
• Identify the role of CCUS in climate change mitigation.
• Describe and evaluate various carbon capture technological pathways and carbon capture technologies.
• Briefly introduce carbon storage and utilization technological pathways.
• Assess the technological readiness level and costs of CCUS.
• Explore the potential of implementing CCUS in Hong Kong.
