NUT’S SHELL

CO2MPRISE workshop | 26 October 2020 6

Who is NEN? We are the Dutch knowledge
centre for standardisation

CO2MPRISE workshop | 26 October 2020 7

Who is NEN? We are the gateway to your
global network for standardisation
NEN is the formal national standardisation body
representing the Netherlands in European and
worldwide standardisation

CO2MPRISE workshop | 26 October 2020 8

What does NEN?

• We develop and maintain

standards and similar
deliverables
• We develop and manage
certification schemes and
maintain registers
• We publish standards and
supporting documents in
various formats
• We support use and
implementation of standards

INTRODUCTION INTO
STANDARDISATION

CO2MPRISE workshop | 26 October 2020 10

 Why standardisation?
Overcoming
trade barriers

Speaking
the same
language

Vision oil
Harmonisation of specifications & gas
Contribution to UN SDGs sector

What is standardisation? And what are
standards?
Standardisation Standards are:
is based on: • documents with agreements on products,
• open multi- services and systems
stakeholders • designed for voluntary use
process • addressing today’s challenges:
• consensus- – facilitating international trade
building – spreading knowledge, transferring technology as
well as good management and conformity
• transparency
assessment practice
– promoting safety and security
– assisting in environmental and health protection
– deploying advances in IT and new technologies
– contributing to good (public) governance

 What is relationship between regulation,
standardisation and certification?
Organisation has to Regulator has
comply with legal confidence in
requirements value of certificate
to demonstrate
compliance with
law

GOLDEN Third party

One way to TRIANGLE conformity
demonstrate assessment
is applying increases
standards credibility

Why participate and invest in standardisation?
Creating added value!
Advantages of participation:
• influence market developments
• (inter)national technological and commercial network
• faster and easier access to (inter)national markets
• new insights in innovation and development
• positioning and adapting your business strategy
• knowledge acquisition and sharing

 ISO/TC 265 ‘Carbon dioxide capture,
transportation, and geological storage’
Standardization of design, construction, operation,
environmental planning and management, risk
management, quantification, monitoring and verification,
and related activities in the field of carbon dioxide
capture, transportation, and geological storage (CCS)

Standards for CO2 utilisation

Standards on CO2 capture and

transportation, and overarching aspects
are also relevant for CO2 utilisation

CO2MPRISE workshop | 26 October 2020 18

ISO/TC 265 Ad-hoc group on CCU
Main conclusions (July 2018)
• CO2 geo-utilisation and mineralisation: high potential for
CO2 emissions reduction
• CO2 to mineralisation: need a business case and
assessment of CO2 emissions reduction
• CO2 for chemicals / fuels / bioconversion:
— size of market is too small for high impact on CO2 emissions savings
— need to conduct LCA for assessment of all environmental impacts
— need high energy consumption => renewable energy is essential
• CO2-based products belong to other technical
committees (i.e. product-specific standards)

CO2MPRISE workshop | 26 October 2020 19

ISO/TC 265 Ad-hoc group on CCU
Recommendations (July 2018)
• CO2 geo-utilisation: other types of enhanced
hydrocarbon / water recovery should be discussed
• CO2 utilisation for mineralisation / chemicals / fuels /
bioconversion: CO2-based products belong to other
technical committees (i.e. product-specific standards)
• Identification of need for harmonised guidelines to
evaluate GHG emission saving; work of ISO/TC 207
‘Environmental management’ is too generic for CCU:
— Proposition to work on Technical Report for assessing gap
between other technical committees and ISO/TC 265 for the need
of ‘standards’ for CCU / CCS – possibly in WG 5
— Proposition to develop International Workshop Agreement

Standards + Innovation for researchers
From the lab to (public) procurement
Standardisation can help you to:
• keep up with leading technologies
• comply with regulations and certifications
• find new partners
• access technology and knowledge that supports your
entry to market
• provide in-demand customer service
• get your R&I research proposal accepted
• get professional recognition
