* [Lecture summary] *
There are only a quarter century left until 2050, the target year for net zero greenhouse gas emissions. Hard-to-abate sectors that are extremely difficult to achieve by simply introducing large amounts of renewable energy
Negative emission technologies (NETs) are essential to offset the CO2 emissions of sectors. Enhanced weathering (ERW) is one of the technologies (CDR) that directly removes CO2 that has been released into the atmosphere, but compared to other technologies, it requires less water and land use.
Since natural rocks containing Ca/Mg are also widely distributed in Japan, there are high expectations for its implementation in Japan. We will also provide a detailed explanation of domestic and
international technology trends, focusing on the technology of the A-ERW project currently being implemented as part of Moonshot Goal 4, as well as the measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) methodology that is essential for clear carbon accounting and crediting.
