The potential for carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies to make a significant contribution to mitigating the risk of dangerous climate change has been recognised by a number of international bodies including the G8, International Energy Agency and Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. A range of commercial-scale demonstration projects are being proposed with the aim of CCS being available for widespread deployment from around 2020. A significant effort is required to train scientists and engineers (and others) to be able to design, construct and successfully operate these and future projects. It is also crucial to use lessons from these projects to inform CCS R&D, as well as drawing on insights from other fields that could be crucial for rapid development of CCS. Recognising these needs, the Research Councils have made a significant investment in UK CCS R&D capacity including through the E.On/EPSRC partnership and a programme of collaborative work with China.The UK Carbon Capture and Storage Community network (UKCCSC) has been established to support the UK academic community during a period (2009-2013) when significant changes in the CCS landscape are expected. The impacts of the Network will include better co-ordination within the UK CCS R&D community and more effective communication of accurate and impartial information, including key research results, to a wide range of stakeholders in a timely manner. The UKCCSC network will be the main mechanism to enable inter-communication between Research Council-funded projects on CCS. It will also contribute to maximising the efficiency of UK intellectual leverage, including within the international community. UKCCSC is deliberately not sponsored by any commercial entity so that it is able to maintain independence.UKCCSC aims to provide a 'one stop shop' for access to the UK CCS academic community. It intends to encourage collaborations that can support high quality work that will advance fundamental understanding of CCS technology, and the non-technical impacts of its use, and contribute to building world class capacity in this area. Any UK-based researcher is eligible to participate in UKCCSC core activities. These include two face-to-face meetings each year for academic researchers to share ongoing work, as well as updating key stakeholders. Between meetings, the UKCCSC website will provide relevant resources. A regular newsletter will also be circulated to UKCCSC members and registered stakeholders.Additional UKCCSC activities will support the development of a dynamic and stimulating environment for research and innovation on CCS in the UK. These include a programme of activities for early career researchers and specialist workshops or seminars organised in response to proposals from UKCCSC members. Support for exchange visits and other activities to develop strategic alliances within the UK or with international collaborators will also be available to UKCCSC members. In addition, it is expected that UKCCSC will help its membership to contribute to shaping future priorities for funding of CCS R&D in the UK.The UKCCSC secretariat will be responsible for running the network on a day-to-day basis. The full-time network manager supports and promotes academic CCS activities in the UK including by organising events. They are supported by a part-time early careers co-ordinator, webmaster and secretary. The secretariat is jointly hosted by Imperial College London and the University of Edinburgh and managed by Dr Jon Gibbins and Prof Stuart Haszeldine. A project advisory committee will be established to guide the development of UKCCSC as it responds to the rapidly evolving challenges and requirements for CCS R&D. An international reference user group, formed of invited members from representative organisations in other countries, will ensure that strong links are maintained between UK researchers and the international CCS community.

碳捕集与封存（CCS）技术在缓解危险气候变化风险方面的潜力已得到多个国际机构的认可，包括八国集团、国际能源署和政府间气候变化专门委员会。目前正在提出一系列商业规模的示范项目，目的是从2020年左右开始广泛部署CCS。需要作出重大努力，培训科学家和工程师（以及其他人），使他们能够设计、建造和成功地运作这些项目和未来的项目。利用这些项目的经验教训为CCS的研发提供信息，以及借鉴其他领域的见解对CCS的快速发展可能至关重要，这也是至关重要的。认识到这些需求，研究委员会已经在英国CCS研发能力方面进行了大量投资，包括通过E.ON/EPSRC伙伴关系和与中国的合作计划。英国碳捕获和储存社区网络（UKCCSC）已经建立，以支持英国学术界在CCS前景发生重大变化的时期（2009-2013）。该网络的影响将包括在联合王国CCS研发界进行更好的协调，并及时向广泛的利益攸关方更有效地传达准确和公正的信息，包括关键研究结果。UKCCSC网络将成为研究委员会资助的CCS项目之间相互沟通的主要机制。它还将有助于最大限度地提高英国智力杠杆的效率，包括在国际社会中。UKCCSC有意不受任何商业实体赞助，以便能够保持独立性。UKCCSC旨在为进入英国CCS学术界提供“一站式服务”。它打算鼓励能够支持高质量工作的合作，这些工作将促进对CCS技术及其使用的非技术影响的基本理解，并有助于在这一领域建立世界级的能力。任何英国的研究人员都有资格参加UKCCSC的核心活动。其中包括每年两次面对面的会议，让学术研究人员分享正在进行的工作，以及更新关键利益相关者。在两次会议之间，联合王国公务员制度委员会网站将提供相关资源。此外，还将向UKCCSC成员和注册的利益相关者分发一份定期通讯。UKCCSC的其他活动将支持在英国发展一个充满活力和激励人心的CCS研究和创新环境。这些活动包括为早期职业研究人员举办的活动方案，以及根据UKCCSC成员的建议组织的专家讲习班或研讨会。还将向UKCCSC成员提供交流访问和其他活动的支持，以在联合王国内部或与国际合作者建立战略联盟。此外，预计UKCCSC将帮助其成员为确定联合王国CCS研究与发展资金的未来优先事项做出贡献。UKCCSC秘书处将负责网络的日常运行。全职网络经理支持和促进英国的学术CCS活动，包括组织活动。他们由一名兼职的早期职业协调员、网站管理员和秘书提供支持。秘书处由伦敦帝国理工学院和爱丁堡大学联合主办，并由Jon Gibbins博士和Stuart Haszeldine教授管理。将成立一个项目咨询委员会，指导UKCCSC的发展，以应对CCS研发方面迅速变化的挑战和要求。一个国际参考用户组由来自其他国家代表性组织的受邀成员组成，将确保英国研究人员与国际CCS社区之间保持密切联系。
