This is a Simplified Chinese version. This case series outlines the strategic choices facing Jean-Michel Gires, Total E&P France’s (TEPF) VP sustainable development, in designing and implementing a community engagement strategy. Case A begins with the approval of a pilot Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) system at TEPF’s Lacq facility in France, and outlines the strategic context for the community engagement process. Case B is positioned three years later as the CCS plant comes online, and Gires looks back at the successes and failures of the completed community engagement strategy.The case includes a range of issues impacting the decision-making context, including: the role of CCS in mitigating climate change; an outline of CCS technology; TEPF’s climate change strategy; the history of TEPF’s operations in the Lacq gasfield, and interactions with local communities; the E.U. climate change regulatory environment (including carbon pricing and CCS) and CCS regulatory uncertainty in France.
