Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is a key part of climate change mitigation and will play a role in achieving climate neutrality by 2050, and achieving negative emissions thereafter. Biogenic CO2 capture and storage (BioCCS) and Direct Air Capture (DACCS) are a range of technologies that can ensure CO2 removed from the atmosphere is permanently stored in geological formations.
An agreement was reached on the Carbon Removal and Carbon Farming (CRCF) Regulation to facilitate the deployment of high-quality permanent carbon removals. Through the adoption of certification methodologies for specific carbon removal activities, the European Commission has an opportunity to ensure high quality carbon removals are certified from projects in the EU. These methodologies, due to be presented later this year, are critical to ensure credible and high-quality, permanent carbon removals are produced under the CRCF.
This webinar will highlight a series of recommendations brought forward by ZEP to inform the work of the European Commission in developing certification methodologies for permanent CDR. By gathering knowledge and expertise from stakeholders at the forefront of industry, civil society and academic institutions, this webinar will enable a nuanced discussion to inform policymakers of the consensus in the industrial carbon management community.
