This is the fourth in a series of Brussels events on various aspects of energy R&D policy organized by Science|Business with the support of BP.

 

The academic policy symposium was hosted by the Norwegian mission to the EU in Brussels, on 27 April 2012.

The European Union is betting big on carbon capture and storage (CCS) technologies as part of its strategic energy roadmap to 2020. Ten to 12 demonstration projects are envisioned under the EU’s Strategic Energy Technologies (SET Plan), requiring an investment of up to €16 billion. But lack of funds and a comprehensive planning framework have stalled the projects. Europe now risks missing its target of making these technologies commercially viable by 2020.

 

What policy measures would give industry the confidence to invest in these costly demonstration projects and help Europe regain its lost momentum? What lessons can be drawn from the innovation policy approach to CCS in the US and China, which are outpacing Europe in this crucial field? And what kind of research results will help assure a skeptical European public that carbon capture and storage is a safe enough bet?

 

This high-level roundtable discussion will focus on the research needed to tackle a range of technology issues, particularly around CO2 storage offshore and safety monitoring, as well as the path to developing an overarching commercial framework for CCS to encourage private investment.

 

This is the fourth in a series of Brussels events on various aspects of energy R&D policy organized by Science|Business with the support of BP. A report of the conclusions will be published, as a contribution to the policy debate in Europe over this vital set of technologies for a sustainable energy future.

Looking along the former terrace or bowling green to the site of the Summerhouse's pair.

 

The Summerhouse at Eyton-on-Severn is the survivor of a pair of banqueting towers built in the garden of Eyton Hall at the turn of the seventeenth century for Sir Francis Newport. It consists of two joined octagons in stone and brick, the smaller containing a spiral staircase. Originally the ground floor with its arches would have been an open loggia; the room above would have been used during banquets and entertainments, perhaps for guests to admire and eat fanciful sweetmeats.

 

Eyton Hall was destroyed by fire in the eighteenth century. The other tower was included in a georgian house and was lost when that too burned (the house was rebuilt but not the tower).

 

The eastern tower survived in an increasing state of decay until restored in the 1980s by the Vivat Trust, a small charity that preserves historic buildings by letting them as self-catering holiday accommodation.

 

I spent a very pleasurable week in the Summerhouse.

The Plumed Whistling-Duck is one of two whistling or tree ducks found in Australia. It is a tall, long necked duck, with very prominent long lanceolate off-white plumes edged in black along the flanks. The face and foreneck are light, the crown and hind neck are pale brown and the brown feathers of the upper back are edged buff. The breast is pale chestnut, finely barred in black. The bill is mottled pink and grey and the legs and feet are pink. It is also known as Grass Whistle Duck, Eyton's Plumed, Red-legged or Whistling Tree-duck, Grass, Grey or Red-legged Whistler, and the Monkey Duck. The Plumed Whistling-Duck is mainly found in the northern and eastern tropics of Australia, it also extends southwards to New South Wales in the east but does not come far south of the Kimberleys in the west. During the day the Plumed Whistling-Duck congregates in large numbers with other waterfowl, on the margins of lagoons, swamps and mangrove creeks, for preening and sleeping. At night they fly out, often quite long distances, to feed on grasslands. In the breeding season the Plumed Whistling-Duck leaves the water and nests on the grassy plains. Plumed Whistling-Ducks graze on tropical grasses. They pluck grass (like a goose) and also take food from the water by dabbling from the surface. Breeding for the Plumed Whistling-Duck begins in the tropical Wet Season. The nest is a scrape in the ground, sparsely lined with grass, usually under shelter of a bush or other vegetation. The Plumed Whistling-Duck is monogamous, and pair-bonds are probably life-long. Both sexes share the duties of incubation, with the changeover taking place in the evening, and brood the young. Although the Plumed Whistling-Duck is a bird of the tropical grasslands, it has benefitted from pastoral practices which provide dams for water and pasture on which to graze.

Origin not certain but very probably made in Crosby, Liverpool There is evidence of quite a substantial brickworks on Cooke Lane, Great Crosby on the 1907 6" OS map.

There are also two brickmakers listed in the 1894 edition of Kelly's Liverpool directory: -

Edward Eyton, Thorpe's Lane. Great Crosby

Robert Wood, Endbutt Lane, Great Crosby
