CO₂ Value Europe (CVE) is an international and non-profit association founded in November 2017 building on the results and the enthusiasm generated by the EU FP7-funded project SCOT (Smart CO₂ Transformation).

Within a few years, CVE has become the legitimate representative of the Carbon Capture & Utilisation (CCU) community in Europe. The association attracted over 70 pioneer members covering the entire CO₂ value chain (incl. industries, research organisation and universities, start-ups and regional clusters), and developed a vast network of many more organisations and individuals who share the belief that CCU technologies are necessary to help the EU reach climate targets, especially for the hard-to-abate sectors.
