US-based tech startup RepAir Carbon Capture and the Dutch carbon storage developer Cquestra are collaborating on plans to establish Europe’s first onshore direct carbon capture and storage (DACS) facility, at a site southeast of Paris. "Our partnership with Rep-Air allows us to demonstrate Europe’s ability to mature onshore DACS projects. This is important to balance the momentum created by the US Inflation Reduction Act and resurface Europe as a leader in the carbon dioxide removal space,” said Walid Sinno, CEO of Cquestra. #energy #energynews #carbon #CCS #DAC https://lnkd.in/ehYVnJYy

India’s appetite for CCUS is poised for significant growth heading into 2025 as the government has indicated it expects to announce a new policy framework for the sector before the end of this year. “CCUS is essential for decarbonising the power sector in India, given its heavy reliance on coal for over 70% of its electricity needs,” said Megha Arora, partner at JSA.

Plans for CO₂ pipeline projects in the US are being stifled by red tape, with the difficult regulatory landscape already leading to the demise of the Heartland Greenway project. “Because of the regulatory system we have in place, developers have to seek approvals from every state, or in some cases, every county that they enter,” Hillary O'Brien, senior director for carbon management and science at non-profit ClearPath, told Carbon Economist. “They need speed and certainty, and they are just not getting it.” Charles McConnell | University of Houston #energy #energynews #CCUS #carboncapture https://lnkd.in/erpUJ5Yi

Energy services company Kent is set to produce a set of guidelines on behalf of the London-based Energy Institute to be used in calculating the costs of decarbonisation projects in the UK’s upstream oil and gas sector. “A clear, concise, and targeted document that all energy professionals can refer to will be invaluable for ensuring that capital and resources are allocated appropriately and in line with net-zero commitments,” said James Lawson, chair of the Energy Institute’s upstream environmental group. #energy #carbon #decarbonisation #oilandgas #UK https://lnkd.in/e5cR_eXd

Voluntary carbon markets have taken a reputational hit following a series of investigative newspaper reports claiming that many credits sold do not represent genuine carbon reductions, according to a Climate Crisis Advisory Group report. “The number of transactions and the money going into the system basically halved in the 12 months following these reports,” Mark Maslin, a professor at UCL and one of the authors of the report, told Carbon Economist. #energy #energynews #carbon #carbonmarkets https://lnkd.in/dKViWh_A

The Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) has recently unveiled plans to list three new carbon futures contracts. The stock market operator sees the country’s broader energy transition, under which it aims to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, as a major investment opportunity. “Australia has the potential to be one of the biggest producers of carbon credits in the world. We are positioned to be a significant player in the global market," said ASX Head of Commodities Daniel Sinclair. #energy #carbon #CCS https://lnkd.in/eXP46S7E

Concrete details of Turkey's proposed Climate Law have still yet to emerge despite rumours it would come before the Grand National Assembly before its summer recess. “It is not clear when the Climate Change Law will be scheduled to reach the Turkish Grand National Assembly,” said Kerem Arıç, partner at Turkish law firm YAZICI Attorney Partnership. “The fact that a large consensus regarding the general framework of the law has not been reached with environment law experts or with environmental activists is a probable cause for the delay.” Dila Küçükali | Deger Boden | Boden Law | Yesim Bezen | Bezen & Partners #energy #hydrogen #emissions https://lnkd.in/eSkihBGT
