RCGI Communication

The RCGI – Research Centre for Greenhouse Gas Innovation is the result of the São Paulo Research Foundation partnerships in support of scientific research for the development of the energy sector. Its activities are based on three pillars: research, innovation and diffusion of knowledge. The Centre complements Fapesp’s experiences in supporting high-level scientific research and technology development towards these fields. It aims to establish a world-class Centre with research investigations, innovation and diffusion of knowledge to contribute worldwide with solutions for the great challenge humankind is facing in the 21st Century: Climate Change. In this venture, the Centre has five distinct, but complementary, research Programmes: Nature Based Solutions (NBS), Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU), Bioenergy Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), Greenhouse Gas (GHG) and Advocacy.
