Welcome! With the belief that it is the responsibility of engineering professionals and engineers to respond to the global challenge of addressing worldwide greenhouse gas emissions, the five major engineering societies, AIChE, ASME, AIME (AIST, SPE, TMS, SME), IEEE, and ASCE, have joined together to organize an initiative to the challenges posed by developing and implementing technologies for Carbon Management. This website will serve as a resource on the challenges to our collective 1 million members and society at large.  

  • Recent Changes to IEEE-USA National Energy Policy Recommendations

    The 2013 IEEE-USA National Energy Policy Recommendations were developed by the Energy Policy Committee and approved by the IEEE-USA Board. They reflect the most recent changes in the energy supply and the state-of-the art in energy technology. View the latest document by following the above link.

  • External Costs of Nuclear: Greater of Less than the Alternatives?

    FSCM is proud to announce that Veronika Rabl, IEEE representative on the FSCM intiative, recently published an article as a co-author in the Jounral of Energy Policy. The paper is titled "External Costs of Nuclear: Greater of Less than the Alternatives?" Click the link to read the full article.

  • AIChE and A&WMA Web Forum Available Now - EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule: Lessons Learned

    To bring businesses up-to-date, AIChE and the Air & Waste Management Association (A&WMA) created a 90-minute look at the first year of reporting, what's been learned, and what's ahead. Click on the link above for more information and to preview the web forum.

  • Welcome Address: Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change

    The Working Group III (WG III) of the IPCC focuses its work on the mitigation of climate change. The IPCC has the responsibility of providing policy makers with objective scientific and technical findings that are policy relevant but not policy prescriptive. The group is meeting in Washington, DC for the WG III - Expert Review Meeting for the 5th Assessment Report. The Founder Societies Technologies for Carbon Management is hosting this workshop. View the welcome presentation above and more about the event here. 

  • Call for Abstracts: Massive Energy Storage for the Broader Use of Renewable Energy Sources, An ECI Conference

    The proposed conference deals with energy storage in massive quantities that will broaden the use of renewable energies. Proposed conference topics include most of the potential technologies currently under consideration for energy storage -- including storage in the form compressed and liquefied gases, electrochemical storage systems, and/or other phase changes in media. Click on the link above to learn more about the conference and the abstract submission process.

  • Overview of the 2012 Carbon Management Technology Conference

     IEEE's Veronika Rabl provides an overview of this event including background on the Carbon Management Project, major topics covered at the conference, and observations.
