🇪🇺 Last month, the European Commission unveiled the Industrial Carbon Management Strategy, highlighting the pivotal role of CCUS technologies in achieving net zero goals by 2050.   🔎 At the Carbon Capture and Storage Association, we've put forth a set of recommendations to advance the ICMS:   🔹 Establish a supportive legal framework to implement the actions listed in the ICM Strategy. 🔹 Support the strategic role of CCUS technologies and infrastructures by increasing financial commitments at the EU and Member States levels. 🔹Emphasise the role of international cooperation and alignment of ETS systems to boost the Europe-wide CO2 storage market potential.   #CCUS | #CarbonCapture | #NetZero More details here 👇🏼

🤔 Is it worth investing in or building a company in Direct Air Capture (DAC)? ❓Here are the 3 questions that helped the Revent team arrive at our answer: 1. Do we believe that the world needs carbon removals? 2. Do we believe that DAC + storage is (or will become) a vital class of removals? 3. Do we believe that DAC players can bring costs down? And even if so, will there be enough demand to justify mass scale-up? Bonus question: What kind of solutions should we support - what does “good” look like? 🙏 Special thanks to Anna von der Schulenburg for generously sharing her expertise. For anyone looking to understand DAC and the broader carbon removals landscape, check out her new company, Permutation! ➡️ See our thoughts and come to your own conclusion with our DAC Thesis Map: https://lnkd.in/ect_jAan #directaircapture #ccus #carbonremovals #voluntarycarbonmarket #climatetech Otto Birnbaum Dr. Lauren Lentz Henrik Grosse Hokamp Rebecca Brill Franca Pullem Francesca Baillieu Florian Stapelfeldt Sharon Chen

What is the meaning of “Energy Transition”? Is it an engineered reduction in global demand for oil & gas / fossil fuel energy resources? Is not a transition inevitable & necessary because it does not make sense for 8 billion humans in an advanced industrial civilization to depend on a finite and depleting resource for long term survival? Large scale capture of CO2 via huge amine plants, followed by compression of this gas to supercrital conditions and transport in large diameter corrosion-resistant steel pipelines for injection into suitable underground storage formations, will never happen. This is a prophecy. The required capital-intensive plant & equipment represents $multi-billion sunk cost with no return for the investor & no practical benefit for humanity. Further, with no impact on the climate one way or another. The Egyptians under their religious leadership could mobilize the nation to build massive pyramids that had no practical use as far as survival goes. And so it is for the construction of huge CO2 capture & storage facilities. They will be monuments to appease the gods of climate change but will serve no practical purpose apart from stimulating the steel manufacturing and construction industries

💰 A government funding programme worth billions is set to make the UK a pioneer in the capture and injection of #CO2 (Carbon Capture, Utilisation and Storage, CCUS for short) over the next two and a half decades. 🤝 The British government plans to invest up to 26 billion euros in the construction of two CCUS clusters in the north and north-east of England. https://lnkd.in/ejwGYt6x (€)

🔎 CCSA members Slaughter and May recently published a regulatory guide on CCUS in Europe. This resource offers valuable insights into the development of CCUS value-chains across 7 key European jurisdictions, including the UK, Germany, France, and more. As CCUS moves from concept to implementation, this guide provides essential information on regulatory frameworks, market opportunities, and the integration of CCUS with policies such as carbon markets and e-fuels. 🔑 Key Highlights: · Overview of CCUS regulatory landscapes across Europe · Guidance for developers, investors, and policymakers · Exploration of the intersection of CCUS with energy security and decarbonisation goals 🔗Read the full guide here: https://lnkd.in/eegMdmcf #CCUS | #CarbonCapture | #NetZero
