Bharti Garg is a professional chemical engineer currently working on the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation's (CSIRO) research project on next-generation carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology. Her research is very applicable to the power plants across countries like Australia, India and many other Asian countries which do not currently have flue gas desulfurization units and tend to deploy CCS.

As Vice-President, Strategy & Stakeholder Relations, Beth leads the Knowledge Centre’s considerations of policies and regulations that foster Carbon capture and storage (CCS); and focuses on helping to link CCS knowledge with other countries to reduce locked-in investments and collaboratively support the goals of the Paris Agreement.
