What We Stand For
We demand ambitious policy frameworks at European level, which elevate CCS to a priority issue for the European Union.
We advocate for policies at a national level that aim to kickstart CCS investments in EU Member States.
We aim to change perceptions of CCS, and ensure that it is recognised as a necessary step towards climate neutrality.
We push for action to turn CCS from a ‘pipe-dream’ to an industrial-scale solution.
Why We Exist
CCS Europe exists to impress the urgency of the situation upon policymakers at EU and national levels.
Our objective is to secure recognition by policymakers and citizens across Europe of the urgent need to deploy carbon capture technologies to curb CO2 emissions from energy-intensive and industrial sources that are hard to decarbonise by other means, and to achieve negative emissions by removing CO2 directly from the atmosphere or from sustainable biogenic sources.
Our focus is permanent storage of CO2 in geological formations or in materials where CO2 is permanently chemically bound under normal use and disposal.
CCS Europe will work to promote the introduction of regulatory and financial measures that can stimulate the necessary investment by business and public authorities.
Join us
Ignorance of CCS technology remains widespread. Most EU governments still do not have strategies for industrial decarbonisation and CCS deployment. We need strong and effective political advocacy for CCS - in Brussels and in national capitals. Now is the time when we can make a real difference and shape the agenda for the future. Now is the time to make CCS happen. Join us today and start making your contribution.
