SUMMARY:Stakeholders Consultation - European Commission’s CO₂ Transport Package: Implications for EU Climate Policy
DESCRIPTION:This is a by-invitation only event. If you are interested in joining please write to ccavallera@ercst.org \n  \nThe European Commission’s CO₂ Transport Package is central to enabling an integrated and competitive EU market for CO₂\, supporting the scale-up of industrial carbon management solutions including CCS\, CCU\, and CDR. \nIn line with the Industrial Carbon Management Strategy\, the EU must deploy significant CO₂ transport infrastructure to connect capture sites with storage or utilisation locations. This will require a coordinated approach across borders\, greater regulatory clarity\, and strong investment signals. The Net Zero Industry Act reinforces this ambition by establishing an EU market for CO₂ storage services and setting a legally binding target of 50 million tonnes of annual CO₂ injection capacity by 2030. \nThis meeting is intended as a stakeholders/experts workshop which will brainstorm on the outline and content of the ERCST Paper ‘European Commission’s CO₂ Transport Package: Implications for EU Climate Policy’. \nThe authors will present the paper’s draft outline\, setting the scene for an in-depth discussion with the speakers and the participants. \nAgenda

SUMMARY:Discussion - Public consultation on CO2 markets and infrastructure
DESCRIPTION:This is an ONLINE by-invitation only event. If you are interested in joining please write to ccavallera@ercst.org \nThe Communication outlining the 2040 climate target and its accompanying impact assessment highlight that carbon capture\, utilisation and storage (CCUS) will be essential for achieving the EU’s 2050 climate goals. Likewise\, the Industrial Carbon Management Strategy\, released in February 2024\, acknowledges the need for new legislation to support the creation of competitive CO₂ markets and the development of transport infrastructure. \nThe European Commission has now launched a public consultation on a legislative initiative concerning CO₂ transport infrastructure and markets.\nConsultation period: 06 October 2025 – 09 January 2026 (midnight Brussels time). \nERCST will be submitting input to this consultation. We recognize its importance and would like to discuss with you and hear a divers set of views to ensure that our contribution is well grounded\, especially as some of the issues are highly technical and require direct experience in these areas.\nThis session is intended as an interactive exchange where stakeholders can share their insights\, raise concerns\, and help identify practical solutions to inform ERCST’s contribution to the consultation. \nAgenda

SUMMARY:Finding common ground: A debate on the role of Carbon Management technologies in decarbonisation pathways
DESCRIPTION:Register to attend in-person Register to attend online \nThis is an in-person event. “Important! Online participation is only allowed for attendees located outside Belgium”. \nPublic sentiment and acceptance of Industrial Carbon Management (ICM) technologies – namely Carbon Capture\, Utilization\, and Storage (CCUS) and Carbon Dioxide Removals (CDRs) – are crucial for the overall EU approach to climate action and for having them deployed on time to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. Various factors\, including the negative perceptions held by environmental advocacy groups\, significantly influence public opinion. These groups often view these technologies as unsafe\, untested\, and a hindrance to the energy transition\, potentially jeopardizing the global net zero goals set by the Paris Agreement. \nRecently\, however\, there has been a shift in public opinion. The ongoing energy crisis\, rising energy costs\, and the visible challenges of achieving the Paris Agreement’s goals have led to a reluctant but growing acceptance of ICM technologies. However\, communication between different stakeholders seems not to exist\, as they often have different views on how decarbonization and the Paris Agreement’s goals should be achieved\, and which technologies are more ‘legit’ than others. \nIn this roundtable\, various stakeholders with (opposing) views are gathered together\, intending to find common ground to move forward with developing and deploying ICM technologies and their role in decarbonisation models and achieving climate neutrality. \nSlides \nAgenda

SUMMARY:Focus Group - Building a cross-border CO2 infrastructure beyond the EU: risks and opportunities
DESCRIPTION:This was an online event. \nThis event was by invitation only.\n \nSince the publication of the Sustainable Carbon Cycle Communication in 2021\, CCUS and CDRs have gained increasing attention from stakeholders and policymakers and led to the adoption of various policy proposals\, such as the Carbon Removal Certification Framework\, in 2024. \nAs a next step to further incentivize the development and deployment of these technologies in the EU\, the Commission published the Industrial Carbon Management strategy in the same year. It identified three main pathways to be developed – namely\, CCS\, CCU\, and CDRs – and highlighted how building an EU’s CO2 infrastructure is meant to become one of the priorities to focus on as it is considered a key enable of the pathways. \nHowever\, the EU may need to rely on other countries’ storage capacity to achieve its net zero emissions target by 2050 for various reasons\, including the uncertainty over the volume of storage capacity in the EU and because of differences between Northern and Southern Europe. For some Member States\, opting for storing their CO2 in third countries may be the only choice. \nIn this roundtable\, participants were invited to discuss the following questions: \n           – How important is it to build a CO2 infrastructure beyond EU borders? \n           – What are the opportunities? And what are the risks? \n           – What are the elements and criteria that need to be worked on? \nAgenda Slides

SUMMARY:The CRCF trilogues and the Industrial Carbon Management strategy: where are we headed?
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn 2023\, the policy framework related to CCUS and carbon removal technologies gained considerable momentum in the European Union thanks to the new legislative proposals developed by the European Commission\, such as the Certification Framework for Carbon Removals (CRCF) and the announcement of an ‘Industrial Carbon Management’ strategy\, alongside other pieces of legislation. \nIn 2024\, important developments in these two files are expected\, as the ordinary procedure related to the CRCF should come to an end before the next policy cycle\, and the Industrial Carbon Management strategy was published on February 6. \nThe roundtable discussed key developments on the two proposals and provided an opportunity to exchange views on how it addresses concerns from stakeholders and to better understand how the policy framework related to CCUS and carbon removal methods will develop.  \nAgenda     ERCST slides on CRCF trilogues     ERCST slides on ICMS    ERCST Publication

SUMMARY:Carbon Removal Certification Framework: What is next?
DESCRIPTION:This was an in-person event. \nIn 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. \nAt 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 which is 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. \nIn its plenary\, the European Parliament voted on its position on the CRCF. The roundtable discussed key takeaways from the report of the rapporteur from the ENVI Committee and provided an opportunity to exchange views on how it addresses concerns from different stakeholders. \nAgenda    ERCST Slides    Norsk Hydro Slides    ERCST Publication

SUMMARY:Public perception of CCUS and carbon removals
DESCRIPTION:This was an in-person event. \nScaling up CCUS and carbon removal technologies is essential for global climate neutrality by 2050\, but their roles vary internationally. The EU’s ‘Net Zero Industry Act’ and related communications emphasize CCUS integration. Meanwhile\, the U.S. has boosted the 45Q tax credit for CCUS and DACCS\, and launched the ‘COP28 Carbon Management Challenge’ to promote global cooperation on these technologies. \nContrastingly\, public opinion on CCUS is often skeptical\, concerned about environmental and health safety risks\, the potential for prolonging fossil fuel use\, distrust in technology and developers\, and opposition to local project development\, reflecting a ‘not under my backyard’ sentiment. \nThe scarcity of official strategies detailing how CCUS contributes to achieving climate targets in national documents further complicates public trust. \nIn this event\, different perspectives on public perception of CCUS were explored\, to understand views from stakeholders from various sectors that can bring their perspectives and experience on the topic. \nAgenda     ERCST Slides     Publication      CCUS Forum

SUMMARY:I4C 2023: CCUS in the net-zero transition
DESCRIPTION:This event was selected as a workshop within Innovative4Climate (I4C) 2023\, the World Bank Group’s annual global conference on climate finance\, carbon markets and investment. The full programme is available here. \nTo achieve the goal of the Paris Agreement\, countries must drastically reduce their emissions and achieve a net-zero economy by 2050. \nAlthough carbon removals have been designated a key technology to achieve the 2050 climate neutrality target\, the actual deployment is still far below the necessary levels indicated in various global scenarios for meeting this international goal. Also\, full deployment cannot be reached if the scale of this technology remains only at national and regional levels\, as storage capacity is not equally distributed across the globe. For these reasons\, international cooperation is necessary\, and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement can also be one of the tools for the international carbon market for removals. Also\, a strong political message from COP28 on this topic is critical to maintain the momentum. \nIn this event\, ERCST explored the role of carbon removals in different climate neutrality scenarios and how regulatory frameworks in different countries are giving value to this technology. \nAgenda    ERCST Slides     Publication 1    Publication 2 \n

SUMMARY:EU CCUS policy: Net-Zero Industry Act & upcoming Commission’s Communication
DESCRIPTION:To achieve the goal of the Paris Agreement of pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels\, countries must severely reduce their emissions and reach a net zero economy by 2050. In this framework\, carbon capture\, utilisation\, and storage (CCUS) technology is necessary to achieve ambitious climate targets. However\, its deployment is still way below the needed levels. \nThis event aimed at exploring: \n\nThe CCS provisions in the Net-Zero Industry Act;\nThe elements that ought to be included in the upcoming Commission’s strategy on CCUS.\n\nIn the EU\, interest in CCUS is growing. In particular\, 2023 seems to be an important year: the Net-Zero Industry Act introduces a provision for an injection target capacity while preparing for issuing a Communication on a CCUS strategy. Internationally\, CCUS is also increasingly capturing the attention of policymakers. Nevertheless\, the EU is still far away from achieving the level of deployment of CCUS technology that is required for achieving its climate targets and climate neutrality. There are still a lot of unknowns and elements that need to fall in place. \nAgenda    ERCST Slides

As 2050 is approaching\, it is now to bring this technology under the spotlight to incentivise investments\, development\, and cooperation at an international scale to put it on track for achieving climate neutrality at a global level. \nIn this event\, the role of CCUS in different climate neutrality scenarios and its role in different policy mixes was explored\, bringing over regional perspectives on how this role has been translated and the technology implemented in different regulatory jurisdictions. \nAgenda    BP Slides    IEA Slides    CATF Slides    Norsk Hydro Slides   \nGovernment of India Slides    Recording

SUMMARY:CCUS Industrial Partnership: what next?
DESCRIPTION:Participants in the CCUS Forum in Oslo\, hosted on 27-28 October\, discussed several issues related to a strategic vision for CCUS\, CO2 infrastructure\, and CCUS industrial partnership. \nThe Forum endorsed two documents prepared by the working groups on the CCUS Vision Strategy and CO2 Infrastructure. However\, the industrial partnership concept still requires further reflection. Stakeholders agreed that a CCUS industrial partnership would be needed to speed up the deployment of those technologies to achieve climate neutrality\, but the discussion over the format of such cooperation must continue. \nThis event aimed to explore the options for a CCUS Industrial Partnership by bringing together stakeholders and experts from various sectors. \nAgenda    ERCST Slides    EC Slides
