Measures taken by JCCS after the Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake 6th Sept. 2018: Magnitude 6.7 earthquake occurred 12th Sept 2018: Posted JCCS’s views on JCCS on HP

19th Oct. 2018: Convened an expert review meeting 21st Nov. 2018: Posted summary of review meeting on HP 21st Feb. 2019: Magnitude 5.8 aftershock occurred

Key points on JCCS HP:

1. No relationship between CO2
injection and earthquake
2. No CO2 leakage
21

 26th Feb. 2019: Posted JCCS’s views on HP

Key principles to minimize concerns of local community and general public:

 Respond quickly Include technical explanation

Japan CCS Co., Ltd.

Summary
Key Results Successful operation of full chain CCS system 300,000 tonnes of CO2 injection
 Energy efficient CO2 capture process Unique onshore to offshore injection scheme Safety and reliability of CCS system demonstrated
 Concerns about earthquakes addressed Project being conducted with understanding and support of local community25

 Sharing the success of the 1 million-tonne-scale Tomakomai CCS projectinternationally will expand the feasibility of CCUS in countries with issues
 Frequent earthquakes and volcanic activity
 Storage sites near densely populated areas
 Public opposition

Looking Ahead
 Carbon recycling CO2 ship transport
