Dear CO2 Value Europe members and followers,
Europe stands at a crucial moment in its clean industrial transition. With yesterday’s launch of the Clean Industrial Deal, the European Commission has set a clear path toward strengthening industrial sovereignty while accelerating the shift to renewable energy, hydrogen, and Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU). This policy framework reflects a growing recognition that industrial resilience and climate action must go hand in hand. CO2 Value Europe had a leading role in presenting policy recommendations to address challenges for large scale deployment of CCU within the Industrial Carbon Forum and its working group on CCU that we co-chaired.
With the addition of Alexandra de Schonen (SUEZ) and Steffi Götzel (Celanese) to our Board of Directors, we are strengthening our advocacy efforts, ensuring CCU’s role is firmly embedded in policy discussions. Their expertise in the Waste-to-Energy sector and the circular economy, respectively, will support our mission to drive impactful change.
Our growing community, including new members GRDF and SeaO₂, is a testament to the increasing momentum behind CCU. As we push forward, our focus remains on shaping policies that unlock the full potential of CCU and securing its place as a key enabler of Europe’s sustainable transition.
Enjoy reading and reach out if you wish to join our activities.
