The mandate given to us by Minister Alexandra Sdoukou to develop and lead Greece's CCUS programme is a testament to our staff and executive leadership at Hellenic Hydrocarbons and Energy Resources Management Company (HEREMA S.A.), as well as to the political and strategic foresight and unwavering support for integrated, sustainable, solutions by the Greek Government. Today, as we find ourselves in the final preparation and run-up to #Cop29, I recall the words by the International Energy Agency (IEA) "CCUS must form a key pillar in the efforts to put the world on the path to #NetZero"

We present the new IPGC proposal, Intelligent Arrangements. This initiative aims to expand the Smart City concept throughout the country, while also addressing structural challenges within the Brazilian federative pact, such as municipal fragmentation and the dispersion of the Municipal Participation Fund. To completely comprehend the significance of this associated management, it is essential to reflect on the current configuration of Brazil’s 5.570 municipalities and the 1.250 with fewer than 5.000 inhabitants. Our objective is public spending intelligence, and Intelligent Arrangements represent the pathway to achieving it, fostering a more balanced and sustainable development for all. #IPGCBrasil #PPP
