ZERO is an NGO focusing on climate change, GHG reductions and renewables. Their mission is to contribute to limiting the threat posed by climate change by promoting carbon-free energy solutions. Based on this mission, Zero:

• urges companies to choose carbon-free energy solutions and cooperate on putting them into use
• seeks contact with policy makers to favour such solutions
• collects and distributes information to contribute to their realisation.
• In order to make emission-free solutions prevail, ZERO pursues a constructive role in the fight against climate change: instead of negative campaigning, Zero prefer to advocate the solutions which they support. They cooperate with companies and industrial researchers to secure the know-how necessary to maintain that position.

In StatoilHydro we have had project-based cooperation with Zero for many years, and supported the development of their website and publications.

In 2009 StatoillHydro will contribute financially to the establishment of an international information website for CCS and ongoing projects.
