The Advanced Power Technology Forum (APGTF) provides the focus for the power generation sector in the UK on the research and development activities on fossil fuel, including biomass and waste, together with associated technologies including carbon sequestration. This web site provides a resource for the dissemination of the activites of the APGTF and highlights meetings, events and publications relevant to the sector. 
The objectives of the APGTF are to provide the focus in the UK on near-to-zero and zero emission technologies from fossil fuel, biomass and associated technologies so as to ensure that - There is a continuing review of UK Energy R&D initiatives and informed contributions made to new programmes
- UK industry takes advantage of the global market opportunities in the first 2 decades of the century and positions itself for further opportunities out to 2050
- There is a significant contribution to UK wealth creation
- UK contributes to improved quality of life through reduced environmental impact, both nationally and globally

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is seeing increasing funding in the UK going into research, development and demonstration (RD&D) together with an increasing number of proposals for full scale demonstrations of CCS or of advanced ‘capture ready plant’. Early rapid deployment of CCS technologies is now recognised as an important issue in meeting the climate change mitigation targets agreed across Europe and providing a serious option worldwide. As a result there has been a significant expansion in the engagement of the stakeholder community including industry, researchers, NGOs and government departments. |
