Project for International Cooperation on Carbon Recycling and Decarbonization Technologies for Thermal Power Generation

Project overview

Project period: FY2022 to FY2026, budget: 380 million yen (FY2023)

In order to solve the climate change problem, Japan and other countries have declared themselves carbon neutral, announced targets for a low-carbon society, and have begun to take concrete actions. Under these circumstances, this project will conduct technical exchanges, invitations, trend surveys, and feasibility studies for the introduction of specific technologies in order to disseminate Japan's superior technological capabilities through international cooperation. This will lead to the overseas deployment of carbon recycling technology and the decarbonization of thermal power generation, thereby contributing to the reduction of global CO2 emissions and environmental impact.

Details of Research and Development

R&D Item (1) Project for Promotion of Carbon Recycling and Decarbonization Technologies for Thermal Power Generation

In order to promote the introduction of carbon recycling and decarbonization technologies, an environment will be created for the diffusion and development of carbon recycling as well as the introduction of advanced technologies that will contribute to decarbonization through invitations to partner governments and electric utility companies, seminars, human resource development, and international conferences.

(2) Research on carbon recycling and decarbonization technologies for thermal power generation

Research will be conducted on the creation and feasibility of projects related to the diffusion of carbon recycling and decarbonization technologies in Japan, as well as on trends in the carbon recycling and thermal power generation sectors in the world.
