3. Storage performance research
• Capacity and characterisation
• Monitoring and verification
Monitoring for conformance and containment
• Conformance: that the storage site is behaving as predicted and site-
specific processes are sufficiently well-understood to ruled out significant
adverse future outcomes.
• Containment: no evidence that the storage site is leaking in the
subsurface or emitting CO2 to the surface.
