Session 6: Stakeholder Engagement and First Movers: What is the Path to a Project?
Session Chairpersons Sarah Saltzer, Stanford University; Scott Anderson, EDF

The objective of this session is identifying the key stakeholders and the hopes and fears that will need to be addressed to clear the way for an offshore CCUS project.   Topics could include experiences in offshore projects to date, research on stakeholder engagement, and stakeholder perspectives not addressed in previous sessions. A successful outcome would identify key stakeholders and potential paths toward a common vision.
