Aymeric Amand is Policy and Research Director at ZEP. He advises EU institutions and national authorities on industrial carbon management – covering the technical, economic, and regulatory dimensions of CO₂ capture, transport, storage, and utilisation, as well as of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) methods. He oversees ZEP’s analytical and policy outputs and represents ZEP in technical forums, including Commission Expert Groups. His expertise spans EU climate and industrial policy, carbon pricing, CDR governance, and EU funding instruments.

Aymeric also ensures feedback from industry, academia and civil society is reflected fairly in EU policy design. He helps build fair, workable compromises by weighing options against scientific evidence, project experience, regulatory requirements, and public-acceptance considerations. He promotes knowledge sharing and contributes to defining European R&I priorities for industrial carbon management. Trained in climate science, geography, and EU political science, he applies data analysis and GIS tools to quantify options and inform policy choices. He works in English and French.
