The 19th annual RECS program (RECS 2023)—sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Fossil Energy & Carbon Management (FECM)—will be held on July 16-25, 2023 in Colorado and Wyoming for 32 participants who are young leaders in CCUS and the energy transition. RECS 2023 includes engaging, interactive content on a range of CCUS topics and incorporates CCUS site tours, live lectures, a geology field excursion, discussion sessions, and group exercises. Some of the nation’s pioneering CCUS experts from industry, national labs, and academia serve on the RECS faculty and will share about CCUS research, demonstrations, and early commercial projects that have provided the foundation for this emerging industry. The RECS 2023 emphasis will be on CCUS commercial deployment—technical requirements for permitting, where the market is today, key players, and how policy and business drivers shape investments and deployment. RECS alumni will also share about their CCUS work experience with opportunities to network with the broader RECS community (>650 alumni).

Building on over two decades of DOE and industry investment, the CCUS industry is poised to play a major role in mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and bringing about the clean energy transition. The RECS community is activity engaged in these efforts and making an impact around the world. Apply for RECS 2023 here.
