Singapore and Japan have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation (MOC) to pursue collaboration on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS).
The latest pact was signed on the sidelines of the second Asia Zero Emissions Community (AZEC) Ministerial Meeting in Jakarta.
The MOC will facilitate knowledge exchange on best practices for cross-border CCS, share insights on CCS technologies and pool together expertise to accelerate regional adoption.
Minister Tan said, “This MOC signals both Singapore and Japan’s interest to deploy decarbonisation pathways to address climate change. Singapore is keen to work closely with Japan to develop and adopt common standards for CCS, creating a more interoperable market for CCS solutions in the region. Japan is also a leader in CCS technology innovation, and there is much to learn from Japan in terms of research and adoption of CCS technologies.”
