11.30    The opportunity for leadership

             The UK can be proud of its strong track record on clean growth and has now set 
             itself the goal of becoming a world leader in CCUS technologies. What lessons 
             can CCUS and clean hydrogen take from other clean growth sectors and how   
             can they build on these to develop a world leading position?  What are the 
             opportunities for UK political, industrial and global leadership?

             CCUS and clean hydrogen present huge opportunities for existing supply chains

             term sustainable future for today's businesses. This session will consider what 
             opportunities there are for the supply chain and businesses, what parameters
