Regina, SK, May 5 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The International CCS Knowledge Centre has appointed James Millar to the position of President and Chief Executive Officer, effective May 24. A highly respected executive with deep experience in energy, industrial infrastructure, and public policy, Millar arrives at a critical inflection point in the development of carbon capture and storage technology in Canada and around the world.
“We need deep cuts in greenhouse gas emissions if we’re going to meet our ambitious climate goals over the next few decades,” Millar says. “Many global organizations including the International Energy Agency and the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change agree that without CCS the world cannot meet its emission reduction targets. I’m excited to lead this organization at a time when widespread investment and interest in CCS is scaling up.”
