The ROCCS Engagement and Dissemination Workshop was held on June 20, 2023, at the headquarters of Górnictwa (GIG) in Katowice, Poland. The workshop provided a venue for an in-depth discussion of the project's key outcomes. As a result, to ensure that the project's recommendations were widely disseminated, best practice guidelines were added to the agenda. Participants included members of academia, government, private organisations, and the general public. Industrial stakeholders interested in investing and advancing the technology to the demonstration stage were invited to participate in order to better understand the future prospects of CO2 sequestration in coal seams.
