This is an in-person event.

In 2023, CCUS and carbon removal technology are gaining considerable momentum in the European Union thanks to the new legislative proposals developed by the European Commission, such as the Net-Zero Industry Act and the upcoming Commission’s strategy.

At the same time, in November 2022, the Commission also proposed a Regulation for the Certification Framework for Carbon Removal (CRCF) to set out a voluntary EU-wide framework to certify three types of carbon removals – nature-based solutions, engineered-based solutions and carbon stored in long-lasting products and materials – in Europe. It provides a general framework only, while methodologies for each type of removal will be developed through delegated acts with the help of an expert group.

In its plenary, the European Parliament will vote on its position on the CRCF. The roundtable will discuss key takeaways from the report by the rapporteur from the responsible committee in the European Parliament and provide an opportunity to exchange views on how it addresses concerns from different stakeholders.
