Japan & Saskatchewan team up on clean coal and carbon capture

The province of Saskatchewan and Japan have executed an agreement to cooperate on clean coal and carbon capture and storage.

The province and the Japan Coal Energy Center — which represents more than 100 companies — have signed an MOU outlining cooperation on the technologies.

The MOU sets the stage for information exchanges and research projects involving scientists and companies in both jurisdictions which could lead to Japanese investment in Saskatchewan carbon capture and storage projects.
